About this event
Join Stephanie Hendries from Previsico and Matthew Parkes from Balfour Beatty Vinci (BBV) for an insightful discussion on how organisations can better prepare for and respond to flood risk.
As extreme weather events become more frequent and severe, businesses face growing pressure to move beyond reactive approaches and adopt more proactive, data-driven strategies. In this session, Previsico and BBV will demonstrate how real-time flood forecasting and early warning systems are providing organisations with earlier visibility of potential impacts, enabling faster, more informed decision-making.
Matthew will offer a practical, on-the-ground perspective from a major infrastructure project, outlining how these insights are applied on major projects to protect sites, safeguard equipment, and maintain operational continuity.
Together, they will explore the critical role of preparedness, the value of collaboration between risk experts and insurers, and the tangible benefits of acting early. Attendees will gain real-world insights into how effective mitigation strategies can reduce disruption, minimise financial loss, and build long-term resilience.
