Even the mighty Wikipedia might have trouble defining the differences between the communications, technology and media sectors as the old boundaries disappear and new business models emerge, driven by customer demand to supply smart integrated technologies.

How are the sectors responding to this emerging identity crisis and how can organisations address what this blurring of boundaries means in terms of balancing risk and reward?

Our seminar will begin with a thought provoking presentation by a futurologist followed by an open panel discussion highlighting the key risks that are emerging in this sector. We finish with an open debate about what the insurance market needs to do to respond to these emerging risks.

Key topics will include:

Supply Chain Failure
Supply chain vulnerability is emerging as one of the highest profile risks in the sector fuelled by increases in outsourcing, dependency on sole suppliers and global instability in key markets.

Network Resilience and Data Security
Balancing the requirement for 24/7 reliability with an increasingly complex and interdependent infrastructure where customer data must be held securely

Brand Protection and Adverse Media
The value of brand and reputation has never been greater and the power of adverse publicity or comment to cause severe damage to that huge asset has never been stronger

Protecting Intellectual Property Rights
Millions of applications for intellectual property protection are filed each year. With IPR at the core of the value of communications, technology and media businesses how can you resolve the conflicting needs to share technology and to yet protect your intangible assets?

Who should attend?
Risk Managers, Treasurers, Heads of Legal, Internal Auditors and Insurers
