Summit Agenda
Theme: Geopolitics
Speaker: Ulderigo Zona, Hitachi Rail
Description: In a world where volatility is no longer episodic but structural, resilience can no longer be a defensive posture, it must become a deliberate design choice. This session explores how leading organisations are redefining resilience for tomorrow and beyond: not only absorbing shocks, but adapting, evolving, and competing through uncertainty.
Bringing together senior leaders from finance, insurance, and global consumer industries, the discussion will examine how resilience is structured, governed, measured, and lived across different sectors. What does resilience mean in practice today? How are organisations recalibrating their models in the face of geopolitical instability, cyber threats, regulatory pressure, and reputational exposure? And how do leaders personally adapt to this new normal of constant pressure?
This panel is designed as a candid, cross-sectoral, and forward-looking conversation offering comparative insights and practical reflections from those shaping resilience strategies at the highest levels

We’ll examine how forward-thinking companies are embedding risk awareness into their culture, governance, and decision-making processes. While compliance remains essential, its role is shifting toward translating risk intelligence into actionable frameworks that support resilience and growth. Join us for a dynamic session on designing organizations that don’t just withstand uncertainty—but thrive in it.

Description:
As artificial intelligence becomes more deeply embedded in security operations and intelligence, it is transforming how organizations anticipate, interpret and respond to global risk. At the same time, rising levels of misinformation and disinformation, often amplified by AI, are complicating decision-making during periods of instability, conflict and crisis. This session will examine how AI-driven intelligence can both enhance and undermine situational awareness, exploring the risks of distorted narratives, data manipulation and false signals in high-pressure environments. Our panel of experts will discuss how organizations can balance technological opportunity with human judgement, strengthen resilience against information threats, and responsibly integrate AI-enabled intelligence to support effective Duty of Care.

- Sally Wang (moderator), Group VP, Global Alliances & Partnership, International SOS
