Contingency Today
From SR
Have you got a view on how your industry or country should prepare for the threats posed by global warming, cyber crime, pandemics, terrorism, or industrial accidents? If so, ContingencyToday.com could be happy to provide you with a platform to express your opinion and mention your company's products and services.
ContingencyToday.com is a free online magazine and newspaper (launched February 2007) covering the management of threats and responses to industrial accidents, organised crime and terrorism, floods, and pandemics. In short the resilience of the UK's critical national infrastructure. Our target readers are senior managers in public and commercial organisations, politicians and policy advisers, the emergency and security services, and all the organisations from small to large, which supply products and services to this burgeoning field.
Although UK-focused, ContingencyToday.com regularly covers events and companies in continental Europe, USA, Canada and Australia. ContingencyToday.com is backed by the owners of GeoConnexionUK and Geo: International
When ContingencyToday.com launched in early February 2007 it got about two million hits and more than ten million since then. This is only a rough indicator of interest. A possibly better measure is the number of unique visitors, which number already several thousand on a monthly basis, well in excess of its initial target of 20,000 by the end of our first year.
ContingencyToday.com welcomes article contributions from the public and private sectors. Apart from senior executives of private sector companies, recent article contributors include Sir Richard Dearlove, the former head of MI6; Bruce Mann, head of the Civil Contingencies Secretariat; Patrick Mercer MP; Andy Love MP; Paul Domjan, former NATO adviser on energy security; and Richard Barnes, Deputy London Mayor and Chair of the 7th July Review (London Resilience) Committee.
ContingencyToday.com is the only publication, online or print, covering this wide field from a managerial perspective, as opposed to the various technical product newsletters. Currently its news is daily and articles are based on a monthly cycle.
