Europe’s summer weather risk outlook: What businesses need to prepare for now

Europe faces another summer of disruption from extreme heat, severe storms, flooding, drought, and wildfire risk. Join us to understand the potential impacts on your people, operations, supply chains, and overall resilience.
Join Caitlyn Gillespie, Everbridge Chief of Meteorology, and Jessica Hanisch, Head of Business Development Climate Adaptation and European Head of Climate Risk Consulting at Arcadis, for a practical look at Europe’s summer weather risk outlook and how organisations can prepare.
This session will explore which hazards to watch, which regions and sectors are most exposed, and how to turn weather intelligence and climate-risk insight into faster, better decisions before disruption escalates.
