In an interview with the World Climate Foundation, Everbridge CEO Dave Wagner explained that “climate-related events have become more frequent and severe, with a far-reaching impact on communities and businesses. As climate change accelerates, it’s evident that governments and enterprises must adapt to a new reality of increased risk.”

“We know that organizations failing to prioritize climate resilience and address the sustainability and business continuity agenda will find themselves impacted by significant operational disruptions,” said Wagner. “Corporate boards all over the world are aware that customers are requiring better climate adaptation policies. Thus, governance will become an increasingly important factor in the private sector strategy toward climate change.”

Everbridge will participate in the “Ensuring a Climate Resilient Future Through Insurance” fireside chat taking place at the Summit on December 7, 2023, at 14:05 (GMT) in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Everbridge Chief Security Officer Tracy Reinhold will take part in the chat – moderated by Insurance Development Forum (IDF) Secretary General Ekhosuehi Iyahen. The discussion will focus on the important role the insurance industry plays in the transition to a net-zero economy, exploring the question: As risk managers and insurers, how can we ensure the growth of low-carbon solutions that support the transition towards net-zero through policies and risk advisory services to incentivize climate mitigation?
