A panel of experts will examine how escalating geopolitical tensions and terrorism risks are reshaping the operating environment for major construction and infrastructure projects across the Middle East and beyond.

Focusing on the practical implications for risk and insurance leaders, the session will explore how conflict dynamics, regional instability and evolving security threats can affect project delivery, workforce safety, supply chains and asset protection. The discussion will outline how all organisations can strengthen their geopolitical risk monitoring, integrate terrorism and political violence exposures into enterprise risk frameworks, and ensure insurance strategies and crisis response plans remain fit for purpose.

Attendees will gain a forward-looking perspective on how to embed geopolitical awareness into resilience planning — helping organisations better anticipate disruption and protect projects, people, and investments in an increasingly uncertain global environment.
