About The Conference
There is a huge emphasis in Saudi Arabia on the need to implement Business Continuity. In line with the Saudi Vision 2030, Business Continuity Guidelines have been issued by the Digital Government Authority of Saudi Arabia, to enhance the reliability and continuity of ministries and Govt entities.
For commercial entities, Business Continuity can help protect profit margins and enhance market share and revenues.
In banking, the Saudi Central Bank has issued its Business Continuity Framework, which must be followed by all banks.
In fact, for a resilient KSA, all key entities in all key sectors must implement, such as Aviation, Manufacturing, Oil &Gas, Trading, Transportation, Infrastructure etc.
Business Continuity has already been implemented by many entities in Saudi Arabia, across industries. But in many cases, there is still a long way to go.
The Business Continuity Conference, Riyadh 2025 is the 15th edition of our highly successful Middle East Business & IT Resilience Summits and will convene the region’s top minds and thought leaders in business continuity management (BCM), IT Disaster Recovery, Cyber-Security, Risk and Crisis Management. Delegates will have the opportunity to learn from and network with these global and regional experts from the Western world, Asia, the GCC, and Saudi Arabia.
