In an increasingly volatile world, the ability to anticipate, respond to, and recover from crises has never been more critical. This webinar explores the transformative role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in modern crisis management across diverse industries. From real-time prediction and situational awareness to decision support and automation, AI is rapidly reshaping how organisations prepare for and respond to emergencies.

Participants will gain insights into how AI-driven tools are being applied in a variety of sectors to enhance resilience and operational continuity. The session will delve into the challenges and opportunities of deploying AI in high-pressure scenarios, including data limitations, system trust, and operational integration. We will also touch on the ethical considerations vital to ensuring responsible AI use in times of crisis.

Join us to uncover how AI is not just supporting crisis management – it’s revolutionising it.

We look forward to welcoming you!
