About The Event
On January 18, 2024, NACD New Jersey hosted its annual overview of the World Economic Forum’s Global Risks Report 2024. Hot off the presses, Richard Smith-Bingham, Director at Marsh and one of the principal authors of the WEF Report, provided an overview and highlights of the year’s report.
This was followed by a panel discussion facilitated by NACD New Jersey Chair Emeritus, Anita Allen. The panel included Richard, Andrea Bonime-Blanc, global risk and governance strategist, board member and author, and Michael Marquardt, advisor, board member and CEO, Epi One, Inc. After an unprecedented year of dramatic developments in the environmental, geopolitical, humanitarian, and technological spheres, boards and management need to understand the global risks that are relevant to their business and sector for both the shorter and longer terms. Our panelists reviewed the top concerns - risks and opportunities - identified in the WEF Global Risks Report 2024, focusing on practical lessons and data from this Report applicable to both private and public companies and focused on strategy, enterprise risk management and resilience building.
