SMi’s 19th Annual Benelux Infrastructure Forum 2021
2021-11-17 - 2021-11-18 | Amsterdam, Netherlands
Exploring New Financing Mechanisms and Alternative Markets for Future Investment
The industry-leading event for the Benelux region; Benelux Infrastructure Forum, is returning to Amsterdam on the 17th and 18th November 2021 for its 19th consecutive year.
Faced with the prospect of missing its 2021 emissions reduction target the Netherlands has doubled the budget of its forthcoming renewable energy subsidy round to €4 billion.
The need to decrease the reliance of fossil fuels, low oil prices and the need for a renewable energy transition has led to a major shift in the Benelux region towards geothermal power, green gas, solar and onshore and offshore wind and more recently energy storage (battery/hydrogen) to ensure supply and emission targets are met.

This conference will look at the various financing options (PPP, project bonds, pension funds, PPA’s, government funding, green bonds) available for these renewable infrastructure projects in the Benelux region.
Changes in law and politics influence how companies from different countries work together and also how projects are run and finances acquired. This year’s highly anticipated forum will use case studies to help explore what the alternative markets for future sustainable investments in the Benelux region will be.
Attendees will have the unparalleled opportunity to meet, network and participate in panel discussions and debates with industry experts and professionals ranging from: banks, infrastructure developers, and institutional investors, to lawyers, government agencies, financiers and regulators.
Event Hashtag: #SMiBeneluxConf

Adapting to the new normal – managing cyber risks to the Utilities Sector beyond COVID-19 Webinar
2020-06-11 | Webinar
Date: 11 June 2020
Time: 11am BST / 12pm CET / 6am EDT
Location: WEBINAR
HOSTED BY: Leonardo
LED BY:

Dr Max Wigley, NCSC Head Consultant and Head of Consulting, Leonardo Cyber Security Division
Scott Bartlett, Cyber Practice Manager, Leonardo Cyber Security Division

Leonardo are hosting a free to attend webinar on: Adapting to the new normal – managing cyber risks to the Utilities Sector beyond COVID-19
Over recent years there has been a trend in the Utilities sector of connecting previously segregated operational networks into their corporate IT, supported by sensory information technology to improve management capability, efficiency and provide data to stakeholders.

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in further rapid technical and procedural change to organisational systems and ways of which accelerates this trend. The obvious example of this is making changes to IT systems to facilitate home working. Less tangible is the shift in the culture and expectations of the workforce in terms of capability to work remotely and at times that better suit their wider commitments.

Do you fully understand the risks that rapid, in some cases uncontrolled, changes to systems and processes have made?
And how can you ensure that the cultural and technical shifts that have improved delivery capability do not result in unacceptable security risks?

Key Areas of Focus

How organisations can understand the root cause of changes in security culture which present cyber risks, and how positive changes can be driven.
How organisations can understand the risks associated with recent rapid changes in technology and behaviours;
Possible approaches to risk management, security architecture and cyber resilience.

Ultimately, any approach needs to ensure that the Security Strategy, and resulting initiatives and activities, are suitably aligned with the business objectives and thereby demonstrate value. This requires a holistic view of security architecture and risk and will support building Operational (including Cyber) resilience into an organisations culture and technology solutions (combining People, Process and Technology).
