Regulatory Change and Compliance in TPRM

Operational Resilience and Risk Exposure
Operational resilience is a core theme, with discussions centered on managing systemic dependencies and concentration risk across complex supply chains. The event highlights the importance of building resilience-driven strategies that address real-world risk exposure, rather than relying solely on compliance. Case studies and expert panels will showcase effective frameworks for strengthening organizational resilience in the face of emerging threats.
AI, Cybersecurity, and the Expanding Attack Surface
With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence and increasing cyber threats, the conference examines how these factors are reshaping the risk landscape. Attendees will learn about the expanding attack surface within vendor ecosystems and explore strategies for mitigating AI-driven and cyber risks. The event provides actionable insights for integrating advanced technologies into risk management practices.
