🎤 Special Guest: John Preli, Instructor-in-Residence, University of Connecticut School of Business
Join us for an insightful and forward-looking discussion on enterprise risk management in an increasingly complex, digital, and regulated world, hosted by the Business Tech Network (BTN) Stamford and sponsored by Benchmark IT.
As organizations navigate rapid advances in technology, AI, digital assets, and global regulatory change, effective risk management is no longer a compliance exercise—it is a strategic capability. In this session, John Preli brings four decades of executive leadership experience from IBM and academic expertise to explore how leaders can build resilient, execution-ready risk frameworks for the years ahead.
During this session, we’ll cover:
🔹 The evolving risk landscape for 2026 and beyond – Technology, financial, operational, regulatory, and digital-asset risks shaping enterprise decision-making
🔹 Risk management as a strategic advantage – Moving from reactive controls to proactive, value-driven frameworks
🔹 Execution matters – How organizations fail (and succeed) in translating risk management into operational reality
🔹 Governance, compliance, and digital assets – Key considerations for leaders operating in regulated and fast-moving environments
