The Commercial Section of the American Institute in Taiwan (AIT) will organize a “Business Continuity Management (BCM)” Seminar jointly with Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Taiwan Co., Ltd. and the Taiwan Academy of Banking and Finance (TABF) to provide local business entities with professional concepts on business continuity, crisis, and disaster recovery management issues.
Through the introduction of BCM international standard BS 25999, business entities will be able to understand organizational business impact analysis and risk evaluation.
