Program Overview

An ever-changing global environment filled with risks, hazards and disasters requires preparedness – in every sense of the word. Businesses must be able to meet any challenge, from a small amount of data loss to a huge terrorist attack. It is no longer a world where the focus can remain on IT solutions; business continuity encompasses every detail of preparedness, security and risk analysis. Downtime of any kind is not acceptable.

Business continuity planners must foresee and plan for these risks on a daily basis. To meet the challenge, diligence, education and research are required. With tight budgets and personnel shortages, the task of staying prepared can be daunting.

That is why it is essential to pursue knowledge in a timely, easily attainable format. To remain ahead of the challenges, the risks and the evolving technology, business continuity planners must strive to network with other planners, meet with vendors, discover new technology and explore new topics.

DRJ’s Spring and Fall World conferences offer the opportunity for intense study and exploration of all aspects of business continuity planning. Whether it is a hands-on workshop, a lecture session or an informal grouping during lunch, there are numerous learning opportunities at these conferences.

As the largest business continuity conference in the industry, these seminars attract continuity planners from throughout the world and all aspects of business continuity planning. DRJ has sponsored more than 30 conferences, making it the premier event in the industry.

At these conferences, business continuity planners with a variety of experience levels can come together to find solutions, sessions and more. Business continuity planners, emergency responders, IT professionals, security professionals, CIOs and anyone charged with protecting the company’s assets will benefit from the Spring and Fall World Conferences.
