«GLOBAL RISK EXPO-2014» Global Risk Expo is a premier international B2G (business-to-government) exhibition and convention dedicated to discussion of global trends in risk assessment, management and mitigation as applied to public sector, finance, cyberspace and the environment. GRE aims to help businesses understand the needs of the governments worldwide in areas of disaster management and risk mitigation. Global Risk Expo is part of Astana Economic Forum organized by the Eurasian Association of Scientists that brings together over 10,000 delegates from 150 countries annually.

Premise: Being an executive today means being under more pressure than executives of previous eras. The interconnected nature of global economy created many unprecedented opportunities for both public and private sector, but along with that came new, previously unfathomed risks and threats. Financial markets, cyberspace, public health and environment are but a few areas that suffer adverse events on a continuous basis. More often than not, these risks come unexpected and as a result, the effects can be devastating. Understanding the nature of these interconnected risks and pro-active mitigation requires vigilance, cooperation between various organizations and adoption of new methods and technology.
