About This Session

In an increasingly volatile world, organisations can no longer assume that disruption will be short-lived or confined to a single function. Enterprise resilience is about ensuring that an organisation can continue to deliver its most critical outcomes, even when significant parts of the business are under pressure.

This PwC Enterprise Resilience Masterclass introduces the concept of the Minimum Viable Company (MVC): the minimum set of products, services, capabilities, assets, people and third parties required to sustain the organisation during a severe disruption. Understanding the MVC enables leaders to move beyond traditional continuity planning and focus on what truly matters when difficult trade-offs must be made.

Drawing on PwC's integrated approach to resilience, the session explores how organisations can identify critical business outcomes, understand interdependencies, assess vulnerabilities and strengthen their ability to adapt and recover. Participants will gain practical insights into how resilience, risk management, cyber security, operational continuity, crisis management and third-party resilience come together to protect organisational value and maintain stakeholder confidence.

Through practical examples and proven frameworks, attendees will learn how to define their Minimum Viable Company, align resilience investments to critical outcomes, and make better strategic decisions before, during and after disruption.
