This breakfast panel, hosted by Arup, will discuss the intensifying climate challenges facing critical infrastructure and explore how organizations charged with maintaining essential services are advancing their approaches to the protection of infrastructure from extreme weather.

Representing owners and operators of critical infrastructure across the Northeast, our multi-sector industry panel will share strategies to enhance the security and resilience of essential services. They will explore the opportunity to move toward pro-active, planned resilience strategies that address the interconnected nature of infrastructure and community wellbeing. With extreme weather becoming more frequent and severe, the need for planned interventions to strengthen the resilience of critical infrastructure systems has never been more urgent.

Join our panel of experts representing transport, energy, water and government to hear about challenges and steps toward our shared responsibility to address the impacts of climate change.
