Did you know that:

• 80% of businesses affected by a major incident close within 18 months
• 90% of businesses that lose data from a disaster are forced to shut within 2 years
• 58% of UK organisations were disrupted by the September 11th bombings, whilst one in eight was seriously disrupted

Business continuity planning is fundamental to the well being of a business and is intended to ensure stability in the face of unforeseen or difficult circumstances that interrupt critical functions and systems for an extended period of time

Our forthcoming event aims to inform delegates how Information Communication Technology (ICT) can be employed to create a robust and resilient Business Continuity plan.

Come along to our event and discover how to:

• Increase your businesses resilience
• Compete more effectively
• Create a business continuity strategy
• Reduce costs and enable efficiency

Business Continuity – The Facts! Is supported by BT.

BT will be delivering one of the workshops we have on offer, facilitating a panel debate and providing the opening speaker, Bharat Thakra, Head of Business Continuity and Security Practice.
