Aon Lunch & Learn: Successful integration of people risks into business strategy
Day 2 | May 20, 2022
Awareness of people risks, such as the failure to attract and retain talent or workforce shortages, is increasing among businesses. According to the Aon 2021 Global Risk Management Survey, these risks rank among the top 15 concerns of companies. However, with people risks residing traditionally in HR, businesses often do not have all relevant tools in their risk management to adequately address this special type of risk. In a joint effort, HR and risk management should develop new strategies to unlock opportunities.

Business continuity planning in the public sector – the Geneva example
Day 1 | May 19, 2022
The COVID-19 pandemic has violently recalled to all organizations worldwide the importance of business continuity plans. Despite the heavy impact of the crisis on our lives and economies, the pandemic has raised awareness in this area, thus allowing professionals to give a boost to the development of continuity measures to protect their companies' core business. How does a Swiss public administration implement business continuity management? Is it realistic to embark in this journey, considering the large variety of services it delivers to the population? This session presents the approach of Etat de Genève and provides insight on challenges and opportunities as well as practical examples.
COVAX: the risky business of managing pandemic risk
Day 2 | May 20, 2022
In July 2020, Gavi became the legal entity to administer the COVAX Facility, a global mechanism to pool resources and demand for COVID-19 vaccines with the goal of accelerating the availability of and equitable access to safe and efficacious vaccines. At its core, the COVAX Facility is a risk-management mechanism – reducing risk for countries concerned about failing to secure access to vaccines and reducing risk for manufacturers concerned about investing without assured demand. Setting up and running the COVAX Facility is not without risk itself however, and continues to require navigating uncharted territory at unprecedented speed and scale in a dynamic, competitive and uncertain external environment. Risks dynamically shift from upstream procurement and supply to downstream allocation and delivery risks in developing countries. This talk will share how agreeing with stakeholders on risk appetite and robust risk management has been and continues to be vital to ensure that poor countries are not left behind, and the world does not continue to be disrupted by the pandemic – as no one is safe until everyone is safe.

Day 2 | May 20, 2022
