Date: Thursday 3rd December 2026
Time: 15:00 (GMT)
Join experts from LRQA for an executive discussion reflecting on the defining cyber security, technology, AI and operational resilience developments of 2026.
As organisations continue to navigate an increasingly complex threat landscape, accelerating AI adoption, evolving regulation and growing dependence on digital ecosystems, resilience has become a strategic business imperative rather than a purely technical concern.
This session will explore the trends, incidents, innovations and lessons that shaped 2026, while providing practical insights and recommendations to help organisations strengthen resilience, manage emerging risks and prepare for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead in 2027.
