BICSI SP New Zealand Conference 2024
18/06/2024
8:00 am - 6:00 pm
We are proud to announce a groundbreaking event, the BICSI South Pacific New Zealand Conference 2024, designed to revolutionize the way we perceive and address risk in our industry and neighbouring technology sectors.
Purpose
All organisations – whether small, medium or large-scale, private enterprise, government or not-for-profit – are exposed to risks to achieve their goals. These risks can include financial, regulatory, operational, WHS, or reputation based.
The purpose of this conference is to provide NZ industry leaders, along with BICSI members, with a better appreciation of the various risks they face in business, together with mitigation strategies from key thought leaders in these fields. The conference seeks to provide attendees with the knowledge and tools (including, but not limited to technology-based solutions) to implement risk management practices to successfully mitigate their organisational risks. Unlike previous BICSI NZ events, this conference is curated for end users and high-level decision-makers, not the ICT infrastructure industry at-large. Our aim is to provide a platform for comprehensive business education on risk mitigation, a critical aspect too-often overlooked in business and management roles.
Why Risk Mitigation Matters
Risk is an ever-present force in today’s business world, capable of determining success or failure. The consequences of overlooking risk are far-reaching, affecting businesses, careers, and entire industries. By attending this conference, you’re not just gaining knowledge; you’re arming yourself against the potential fallout of neglecting risk.
Consequences of Neglecting Risk
Financial Fallout
Inadequate risk management can lead to financial crises, jeopardizing the stability of your organization.
Reputational Damage
One wrong move, and your brand reputation could be irreparably tarnished, impacting customer trust and loyalty.
Legal Ramifications
Ignoring risk may expose your business to legal challenges, fines, and voided insurance contracts. Put simply, “ignorance is no excuse”.
Operational Disruptions
Unanticipated events can disrupt operations, leading to downtime and loss of productivity.
Key Highlights
Focused Education
We’ll be covering topics like ‘insurance’, ‘workplace safety’, ‘financial compliance’, and ‘risk-management strategies’ addressed by subject-matter-experts (SMEs) from the Insurance Council of New Zealand (ICNZ), HASANZ, Victoria University of Wellington and lawyers, to name just a few. Notably, the merits of deploying technology in mitigating risk will also be addressed by technology SMEs.
Empowering Business Leaders
Equip yourself with the knowledge and tools to navigate potential business-ending events, proactively reducing risk in all facets of your organization.
