Event Details

Periodic geopolitical crises are a fact of life for companies in Korea. But in most cases, familiarity breeds complacency, and companies are prepared insufficiently for adverse scenarios. At this session, our speakers will share their insights on how organisations can build geopolitical resilience frameworks for the Korean Peninsula and North Asia.

Join the BCCK and experts in risk analysis and management from Control Risks, Insight Communications and the British Embassy Seoul to hear how businesses should combine geopolitical analysis with practical experiences of crisis management in order to achieve successful business continuity planning. This session will address the challenges of supply chain derisking and trade warfare and the risks of Taiwan Straits or South China Sea disputes that could trigger regional conflict impacting Korea.

This event is hosted at the British Embassy Seoul and will include welcoming remarks from Deputy Ambassador, Gareth Weir.

This is a complimentary talk open to all BCCK members and their teams. It is aimed at company executives and employees with responsibility for business continuity.

Following the talk, attendees will be able to attend Broughtons Club, the bar inside the British Embassy.
