Emerging Risks Center – Competence Center for new risks launched

The Innovation Society presents the newly launched «Emerging Risks Center». In the center we combine the knowledge and experience of the Innovation Society in managing emerging risks. The center offers a broad range of services, such as monitoring & reporting, consulting & education and product development.

Emerging Risks (ER) are new and/or quickly evolving risks characterised by high uncertainties regarding their occurrence, impacts and consequences. Emerging Risks include technology risks, such as cyber-, fracking- and nano-risks, but also health risks (microbial resistance, multiple stressors etc.) and environmental risks (land subsidence, super nat cats etc.), among others. They are long-tail risks with potentially severe impacts on the economy, the society and the environment. The Emerging Risks Center (http://emergingriskscenter.ch) supports your enterprise in the analysis, assessment and management of emerging risks.

Competence in technologies, human health and environment

We’ve integrated our know-how and long-term experience in dealing with emerging risks into the emerging risks center. It offers you a broad range of services, such as monitoring & reporting, research, consulting & education, workshops, and expert presentations.

By means of the 360°-Risk-Radar, for instance, we enable you to closely and permanently follow emerging trends and risks relevant to your enterprise. The monitoring system analyses, assesses, and reports relevant trends in a proactive manner and provides you with crucial information for strategic and operational decisions. The monitoring system is tailored to emerging risks and may be operated continuously and globally. By means of systematic collection, aggregation, analysis, and documentation, this information will be harnessed for your strategic decision making. This is a precondition for conducting an objective risk assessment in a dynamically evolving market characterised by high uncertainties.
