Meeting/Event Information

In January 2022, the World Economic Forum’s annual Global Risk Report ranked geopolitical risks #10 (out of 10) in terms of severity of impact. Yet just one month later, the war in Ukraine began. And in 2023, board members from around the world identified geopolitical events as the top risk likely to have a severe impact on their organizations in the next 12 months in EY’s Global Board Risk Survey. Indeed, geopolitical volatility has risen to new heights and shows no signs of receding. Are companies doing enough to adapt their strategies and operations to new and emerging conditions? Will sitting on the sidelines mean potentially missing out on opportunities to compete and thrive? And how are boards overseeing geopolitical risks in this complex business environment?

Join fellow directors at this virtual roundtable to hear key takeaways from the 2024 Geostrategic Outlook on how geopolitics will affect business in the year ahead and discuss effective practices for managing and overseeing geopolitical risks.
