From typhoons to heat stress: What APAC businesses need to prepare for

Also available at 9:30am IST and 4:00pm NZST

Across APAC, severe weather and climate-related disruption can quickly affect people, facilities, supply chains, transport routes and business continuity.

Join Caitlyn Gillespie, Everbridge Chief of Meteorology, and Jessica Hanisch, Head of Business Development Climate Adaptation and Climate Risk Consulting at Arcadis, for a practical discussion on the weather and climate risks organisations should be watching across the region.

From tropical cyclones and flooding to heat stress, drought, bushfire conditions and coastal exposure, this session will explore how evolving hazards can impact operations, supply chains and resilience, and what organisations can do to better prepare.

What you’ll learn

  • The severe weather risks APAC businesses should be watching
  • How extreme weather can disrupt operations and critical services
  • Why regional business hubs, coastal markets and distributed supply chains require different resilience strategies
  • How to connect near-term weather intelligence with longer-term climate adaptation planning
  • Practical steps to strengthen business continuity, duty of care and operational resilience

Who should attend
This webinar is designed for business continuity, resilience, security, risk, operations, facilities, EHS, supply chain and crisis communications leaders responsible for protecting people, assets and operations across APAC.
