A view of the previous edition of the conference.
Doha, Qatar: Under the patronage of H E Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani, the Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, the 4th Business Continuity and Resilience Conference with the theme 'Business Continuity & Resilience – Smart Solutions and AI' will take place on Thursday, 27 November 2025.
This conference continues the momentum of our previous three successful editions, which brought together over 130 Qatari companies and institutions represented by business owners, entrepreneurs, industry leaders, and resilience experts. Building on the success of its previous editions, the 4th Business Continuity and Resilience Conference will convene leading national and international experts in Business Continuity, Organizational Resilience and Risk Management in Qatar.
The 4th Business Continuity and Resilience Conference embodies the State of Qatar’s unwavering commitment to cultivating a business ecosystem that does not just endure challenges but uses them as catalysts for innovation, growth, and competitive advantage. This year’s theme, “Business Continuity & Resilience – Smart Solutions and AI,” captures our bold vision for the future. We stand at a pivotal moment where artificial intelligence, machine learning, and predictive analytics are fundamentally transforming how organizations approach risk.
The Ministry of Commerce and Industry is the Strategic Partner of BCRC 2025.
The President of BCRC 2025, Eng. Abdullatif Ali Al-Yafei, emphasised the importance of collective action: “This conference is more than dialogue—it is a call to action. Qatar’s business leaders must move beyond continuity plans that simply maintain operations and instead build intelligent systems that propel their organizations forward through disruption. The critical question is not whether disruption will come—it is inevitable. The question is how we will respond: will we react when forced, or anticipate and adapt?”
“On behalf of the Organising Committee, I would like to extend my sincere thanks and appreciation to our partners, sponsors, and supporters whose trust and collaboration make this important conference possible. Together, we are shaping a more resilient and sustainable future for Qatar.”
“BCR Conference Organizing Committee extends the invitation to business leaders, experts and professionals to be part of this critical conversation and to share their insights. Let us move beyond theoretical discussions to actionable strategies that will strengthen our organizations today while positioning them to lead tomorrow.”
More than twenty-four (24) consultants, experts and practitioners will be invited to participate in the panel discussion.
As part of the conference, the National Excellence Awards 2025 will honor leading institutions and individuals who have demonstrated outstanding achievements in resilience and continuity to stimulate institutional and individual excellence with a transparent criterion and a clear mechanism for selecting the best applicants for the award. Six award categories will recognize innovation, leadership, and effectiveness across public and private sectors. Nominations close on 15th November 2025, with winners to be announced during the event.
