International SOS

The BCI is a natural partner for us in supporting our own employees and delivering additional thought-

leadership to organisations worldwide. It enables us to work together to raise the profile of business continuity

management (BCM) as a discipline and to promote the highest standards of professional competence in BCM in

organisations. For instance, our International SOS Foundation recently collaborated with BCI and Everbridge on

a paper. It is entitled ‘Communicating Risks with a Global Workforce’ and demonstrates the value that travel

risk management and, specifically, crisis communications can have on the safety of the mobile

workforce. We are looking forward to finding new opportunities like this to work together.

prove valuable assets to industry professionals using them for

planning, and they are often cited in media and events globally.
