Understanding Today’s Risk to: Build Tomorrow’s Resilience at ASIS Europe 2024

March 15, 2024

This year’s ASIS Europe – From Risk to Resilience will be hosted in Vienna, Austria on 20-22 March.

The event focuses on the role security plays in supporting business objectives, examining both physical and cyber security risks, and the vital management roles security leaders play in large multinational organisations.

Conference co-chair Inge Huijbrechts, Global Senior Vice President Sustainability, Security and Corporate Communications, Radisson Hotel Group, comments,

“Our world is increasingly complex, our roles reflect that. We manage security strategy, information sharing with our executives and boards, lead teams, tactical implementation, crisis management, and reporting obligations. It’s an extremely demanding mix so I am excited to co-chair the conference at ASIS Europe because I believe it’s exactly the event security professionals need.”

Opening keynote on Thursday 21 March, General (ret.) Tom Middendorp was The Netherlands Chief of Defense for five and a half years and spent 38 years serving his country. He will speak in his current capacity as Chairman of the International Military Council on Climate and Security (IMCCS), sharing hard-hitting insights on the intersection of climate change risk and security concerns.

On Friday 22 March, Ambassador Julianne Smith, U.S. Permanent Representative to NATO will take to the stage, exploring the current geopolitical landscape and how it relates to business risk.

ASIS Europe has gone from strength to strength and now is well established as Europe’s critical gathering for established and aspiring security leaders from across the region and beyond.

In total, more than fifty educational sessions will take place across two days, plus community meetups and 12 hours of dedicated networking time to promote peer to peer dialogue and create new partnerships.

That is a key element of the event for conference co-chair Gavin Henderson, Vice President/Chief Security Officer, Regional Security, Mastercard, who explains

“It’s easy to get overwhelmed by the sheer number of challenges our organisations are facing. That’s why partnership is so vital. This event has the right people in the room to help you, your team and your organization work through whatever 2024 throws at us.”

The onsite networking will be based in a buzzing exhibition area where 48 exhibitors will participate, including headline sponsors Nedap, Genetec and Securitas.

Show Passes are still available (All-Access and Leadership Passes have already sold out).
