Congratulations to all the resilience professionals who were announced as winners of the DRI Awards of Excellence at DRI KL2021!
“DRI Malaysia organized our very first fully digital conference and Awards of Excellence from 23-24 August 2021,” said Joe Wan, DRI Malaysia Program Manager. “The event attracted about 100 multi-industry practitioners coming from 10 countries namely England, Hong Kong, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Japan, Australia, USA, Philippines, Singapore and of course Malaysia our home country.”
“As always, the current pandemic is all about innovating – and having redesigned the conference from the ground up into a virtual two-day conference had ensured that we could bring the most crucial and sought after topics, discussion and sharings to the BCM and cyber resilience industry and community.”
“I am very pleased that DRI KL2021 has been a great success,” said Carol Chia, DRI Malaysia Program Director. “This is our very first virtual event and the response was awesome!”
“Resilience professionals around the world are demonstrating how our ever-growing continuity community is rising to the mounting challenges brought on by the pandemic while responding to other crises as well,” said Chloe Demrovsky, DRI President and CEO. “We are proud to be associated with such tireless and innovative professionals. Congratulations to all the finalists and winners of the Awards of Excellence for your contributions to the industry and your professional accomplishments.”
