Risk & Strategy: Returns versus Resilience
In June 2013 the Cambridge Centre for Risk Studies brought together leaders and decision makers from business, government, intergovernmental organisations, academia and NGOs to explore the inter-linkages between risk and strategy.
Risk is usually perceived as the threat of loss, with predominantly negative connotations.
This meeting challenged these perceptions and promote debate about opportunities inherent in a risky environment.
