G[P]RC Summit 2026, RIYADH
2026-01-26 00:00 - 2026-01-27 23:59 (Asia/Riyadh)
REGISTER

The G[P]RC Summit is the world’s largest summit on GPRC: GRC integrated with Performance and Strategy – bringing together C-level executives, GRC experts, and industry and academia professionals from across the world to share insights, innovative solutions, and best practices needed to drive organisational success and resilience in an increasingly complex and interconnected business environment. This year’s summit will be centred around the theme of

“Driving Success: Integrating GRC with Strategy Execution in a Hyperconnected World.”

In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, organisations encounter a myriad of challenges, from regulatory complexities to disruptive market forces and emerging technologies such as AI. Particularly in the GCC region, there is a notable shift towards embedding sustainability, accountability, and compliance into core organisational strategies. In the UAE, which hosts COP28 this year, sustainability is a priority on governmental agendas, as they integrate ESG frameworks to fuel future growth. The repercussions of non-compliance are significant, both socially and financially, making organisational resilience more critical than ever.

To thrive in this dynamic environment, businesses must go beyond traditional governance, performance management, risk mitigation, and compliance. They must transform into “connected enterprises” where these elements are seamlessly integrated, driving strategic alignment, digital transformation, and data-driven decision-making. By focusing on integrating GRC with strategy execution, organisations can ensure that every facet of the business – people, processes, and data – is interconnected and aligned. This integration fosters agility, adaptability, and resilience, empowering businesses to navigate complexities and capitalise on opportunities in an increasingly connected world.

The G[P]RC Summit 2026 will be a two-day event featuring keynote addresses and panel discussions led by distinguished regional and international speakers. The summit’s sessions will explore a range of themes, including governance best practices, performance optimisation, risk mitigation strategies, and regulatory compliance assurance. Attendees will gain valuable insights into the latest trends, methodologies, tools, and innovations in GPRC, empowering them to navigate future challenges and seize emerging opportunities.

Join us at the G[P]RC Summit 2026 and embark on a transformative journey towards driving success in a hyperconnected world.

The Trust Imperative: Reframing GRC as a Business Enabler
2026-02-10 12:00 - 13:00 (America/Chicago)
REGISTER

For too long, GRC has been seen as the department of “no”—a necessary but reactive cost center. But as organizations face increasing security, regulatory, and AI-driven pressures, the companies that win in the next decade will be the ones that elevate trust from a compliance requirement to a competitive differentiator.

In this session, Drata CISO Matt Hillary moderates a discussion with leading voices in GRC, security, and risk on what it truly means to operationalize trust as a business enabler. Panelists from GRC 20/20 Research and EAB will explore the shift from checkbox compliance to outcomes-driven trust programs that accelerate sales cycles, improve customer confidence, strengthen resilience, and unlock strategic advantage.

This conversation is built for leaders shaping the next era of trust, and for panelists who have lived the evolution firsthand. Register today and join us on February 10th for all the insights.

What You’ll Learn

Why “trust” is becoming a board-level priority

How to reposition GRC as a growth engine—not a blocker

Language and metrics that resonate with executives

How the most mature organizations tie trust to revenue, brand, and velocity

Third-Party Risk and the Extended Enterprise
2026-03-19 10:00 - 11:00 (America/Chicago)
REGISTER

Organizations no longer operate in isolation—they depend on a complex network of suppliers, outsourcers, agents, service providers, and partners. This extended enterprise amplifies both opportunity and exposure. In 2026, third-party risk has become one of the most critical dimensions of resilience, shaped by regulatory scrutiny, sustainability obligations, cyber dependencies, and geopolitical disruptions. This session will explore how organizations can evolve third-party risk management into third-party governance—ensuring that objectives, risk, and compliance are managed holistically across the ecosystem. Participants will learn how to leverage intelligence, automation, and continuous monitoring to manage the full lifecycle of third-party relationships, from onboarding to offboarding.

You’ll learn how to:

Address emerging third-party risk dimensions including regulatory scrutiny, sustainability obligations, cyber dependencies, and geopolitical disruptions that define the 2026 risk landscape.

Evolve third-party risk management into comprehensive third-party governance by integrating objectives, risk, and compliance management across the entire extended enterprise ecosystem.

Implement intelligence-driven approaches and automation technologies to manage the full lifecycle of third-party relationships—from onboarding through ongoing monitoring to offboarding—with greater efficiency and effectiveness.

GRC 7.0: Orchestrating Resilience with Digital Twins and Agentic AI
2026-12-10 10:00 - 11:00 (America/Chicago)
REGISTER

The future of enterprise risk management is intelligent, connected, and adaptive. This session introduces GRC 7.0 – GRC Orchestrate, the next evolution of governance, risk, and compliance. We will explore how Digital Twins of the enterprise—virtual models of organizational processes, systems, and third-party ecosystems—can simulate risk scenarios, identify vulnerabilities, and support resilient planning. Combined with Agentic AI, which can act autonomously to gather intelligence, flag risks, and recommend actions, organizations can move beyond static workflows to dynamic orchestration of risk and resilience. This session provides a vision of how emerging technologies will redefine enterprise risk in practice, transforming the risk function into a command center for resilience and performance.

You will:

Envision and plan for the transformation of the risk function into an intelligent command center that leverages emerging technologies to orchestrate resilience and performance across the enterprise in real-time.

Understand the GRC 7.0 framework and how Digital Twins of the enterprise enable advanced risk simulation, vulnerability identification, and resilient planning by creating dynamic virtual models of organizational processes, systems, and ecosystems.

Evaluate the role of Agentic AI in autonomous risk management, including how AI agents can independently gather intelligence, flag emerging risks, and recommend actions to move organizations from static workflows to dynamic risk orchestration.
