How to Achieve Business Continuity, in under 2 hours
Tuesday 6th February 2007
Venue: IoD Hub, Birmingham
Link to book via the IoD website: click here
This event is provided in association with the Institute of Directors and ICM and is open to all.
Disasters do happen to UK businesses, for a variety of reasons and in a variety of ways. Telecoms or utilities failure, gas leak, flood, fire and terrorist threats are just some of the events that have affected UK businesses over the last couple of years.
Larger corporates have invested heavily in comprehensive business continuity plans to safeguard the future of their operations. However, companies without an extensive support infrastructure are likely to be hit harder by the effects of a business interruption than their larger neighbours.
