We are pleased to introduce 4C Strategies, winner of 2024’s Global Award for Most Original Exercise Programme.

At BCI World Hybrid 2024’s annual conference, 4C Strategies was chosen by a panel of expert judge as the winner of Most Original Exercise Programme. This award is only given to those with a pioneering exercising regime that robustly tests their continuity and resilience system—something 4C Strategies was able to demonstrate.

A spokesperson for 4C Strategies said:

“Winning the BCI Global Award for Most Original Exercise Programme is a tremendous honour and a testament to our commitment to innovation in resilience training. This achievement reflects the impactful capabilities of the Exonaut Exercise Management Software platform in delivering dynamic, data-driven exercises. We are especially grateful to the Hong Kong Financial Services BCM Forum for placing their trust in us and for the opportunity to support their commitment to resilience. This recognition inspires us to continue setting new standards, empowering teams to exercise and prepare for the challenges they may face in the future.”

Judges praised 4C Strategies inclusion of a wide range of participants and an innovative digital portal for enhanced collaboration, saying:

“On November 16, 2023, the Hong Kong Financial Services Business Continuity Management Forum hosted WISE 2023, a major cyber-attack simulation involving 42 financial institutions, 3 regulators, and over 1,000 participants. This event set new standards by using insights from 900 SMEs and integrating operational resilience into crisis response training. The exercise featured an innovative digital portal for smooth collaboration and evaluation, marking a major advancement in exercise management.

The exercise was praised for its clear objectives and excellent facilitation, revealed gaps and emphasised the need for broad continuity risk management.”
