Managing Corporate Risks of the COVID-19 Pandemic:
A Business Continuity Planning and Recovery
Webinar Series for the High-Tech Sector
Background
On March 11, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. As of August 31, COVID-19 has infected more than 25 million individuals and killed over 844,000 worldwide.
Due to the highly interconnected nature of high-tech products and services as well as the complex extended value webs that serve these markets, the global high-technology sector seems to be particularly vulnerable to these non-market disease risks.
During times of uncertainty, scientific, technical and evidence-based knowledge can help companies in the high-tech sector understand, manage, and mitigate non-market risks.

Because TECHCET recognizes that access to reliable information is critical during this difficult time, we have partnered with Vichara Partners to bring you the best information available on how COVID-19 is impacting the high-tech sector.
Their webinar series features experts from a wide range of fields from epidemiologists, physicians, and public health experts to industry experts, business continuity specialists, risk management professionals, economists and supply chain managers.
On Tuesday, May 19, Lita Shon-Roy, the President, CEO and Founder of TECHCET spoke about supply chain disruptions in the materials markets.
