ABOUT THE EVENT

How do you build an organisation that can thrive when uncertainty is no longer the exception, but the operating environment?

Geopolitical fragmentation, economic volatility, shifting trade patterns, technological change, cyber threats and climate risk are forcing business leaders to rethink how they allocate capital, manage risk and prepare their organisations for what comes next. At the same time, major investment cycles, from energy and infrastructure to the current AI investment boom, are reshaping capital flows, industries and competitive dynamics.

The UK and Switzerland offer a particularly compelling lens through which to explore these questions. Both are highly international economies with globally significant financial sectors, strong institutions and independent monetary policy. Both are also home to highly specialised, export-oriented industries that depend on open markets, international supply chains and access to global customers, leaving them particularly exposed to a rapidly changing geopolitical and economic environment.

Capital, Risk and Resilience will bring together senior leaders from business, industry, financial services and economic policy to compare British and Swiss perspectives and, crucially, explore how organisations are responding in practice.

From the global risk landscape and capital allocation to trade, technology, workforce transformation and leadership in uncertain times, the discussion will ask not simply what risks are coming next, but what resilient organisations are doing about them now.

Join the BSCC, Swiss Re and PwC on 25 November in Zurich for an evening of insight, practical experience and candid exchange on how organisations can navigate uncertainty, adapt to change and remain competitive.
