The Impact of Conflict on Commerce
For the first time since inception, the World Economic Forum added "a large-scale terrorist attack" to its top five global threats for 2017. Add to it the threat of cyber attacks, the reemergence of conventional conflict or the global strain on economic and natural resources. How do businesses navigate such uncertain roads, or CEOs form business continuity plans when the next threat is the unknown?

CPE CREDIT
You must be registered in the FEI system for each program for which you wish to receive CPE credit. If there is any question as to whether or not you are registered for a specific program, please contact Jackie Dunn at [email protected] to confirm.
CPE credit is available online via FEI’s CPE Center to both FEI members and non-members. You will need to log in to the CPE Center using the same login credentials associated with your event registration. If you are not an FEI member and don't know your username or passcode, contact Jackie Dunn for assistance.

To cancel a registration, contact Jackie Dunn. Forty-eight ‘business’ hours notice is requested for cancellation. Cancellations within 48 ’business’ hours and no-shows may be subject to a cancellation fee equal to the guest fee. Guest fees will be refunded upon request given that cancellation is received at least 48 ‘business’ hours prior to the event. Absent payment in advance, members are responsible for their guests' late cancellation and no‑show. We recognize that plans can change at the last minute; however, as good stewards of our chapter finances we ask your help in controlling expenses due to last-minute cancellations and no‑shows.
