The ROI on Resilience: Investing in a New Weather Era (Invite only)

-
REQUEST INVITE

As once-in-a-lifetime weather events occur with greater frequency and intensity, traditional resources and systems are proving incapable to meet the challenges of respond and rebuild. This development is extending times for recoveries and disruptions, with significant economic and social consequences. Panelists will discuss how smarter investing for resilient assets and neighborhoods is increasingly a C-suite conversation. Members of the panel will share how their investments in resilience are shaping the conversation about making this a bankable asset class: from lower costs to economic gains and social benefits.
