Program Description

In an era of unprecedented global challenges, from pandemics, climate change and cyberattacks to geopolitical tensions and economic upheavals, the ability to anticipate and respond to disruptions has never been more critical.

Meeting the challenge of integrating disparate data sources for comprehensive crisis forecasting and data-driven solutions is fundamental to effectively managing global crises.

1. What data sources are innovative firms using to forecast and manage global disruptions?
2. What are some of the emerging trends in data science and technology that could enhance our ability to anticipate and respond to future crises?
3. How will artificial intelligence, machine learning, and big data shape a resilient global strategy?

This webinar is the third in our four-part series in 2024.
