We are proud to announce the session lineup for Disaster Recovery Journal’s 38th conference, Spring World 2008. Our conference is planned with you in mind! We have arranged speakers and topics that will address the risks and challenges planning professionals face on a daily basis.

Our theme is Global Solutions for Business Continuity Planning. You will find a variety of subjects at Spring World 2008 that address the global front of BC planning.

We have sessions dedicated to budgets, communications, pandemics, human resources, resiliency, risk management, emergency operation centers and much more.

We select our speakers based on their merit and experience - not on the products they could sell. A few of our general session speakers are highlighted on page 3 - but all of our speakers are impressive and each session is equally as important.

At Spring World 2008, we are offering for the first time a general session and a breakout that will offer an indepth look at a global companies’ plans. The first will be presented by the CIO of Dow Chemical and the second by his disaster recovery team. This type of collaborative presentation will provide attendees a view of the business continuity picture from all perspectives. We hope to continue this trend at future conferences.

Our reputation is that of a solid, strong business continuity conference. We deliver what we promise. In addition to our new offerings, we also have kept all the popular events that keep planners attending year after year!

Take a few moments to browse the brochure, select the sessions of interest to you and register on page 17. Don’t miss your opportunity to attend the world’s largest conference dedicated to business continuity.

I look forward to seeing you in Orlando!
