Business Risks and Climate Adaptation - The Risk Managers Perspective

Come and join us for inspirational talks by sustainability risk and climate adaptation experts and workshops with fellow risk managers.

Some of the most significant risks organizations face today are related to our current lack of sustainability - including climate change, biodiversity loss, resource and water scarcity, or long-term toxicity of many modern materials.

While we rightfully focus significant attention on the Green Transition, risk managers must also prepare their organizations to proactively engage with a serious emerging risk landscape. This includes better understanding the operational and business impact of a changing climate and loss of biodiversity. It also includes our ability to develop adaptation and mitigation solutions that reconcile business, environmental and societal needs.

We are bringing together some of Denmark's leading experts on these questions, and will also be joined by a delegation of 15 risk managers from the Netherlands.
