Webinar | Europe: Security risks to the 2024 Olympics and Euros

Dragonfly is hosting a webinar on the security risks surrounding major sporting events this summer. These include the Olympic and Paralympic games in Paris and Euro 2024 in Germany.

France and Germany are hosting major sporting events over the next few months, facing significant security challenges. Aside from the large number of visitors, the authorities are considering a range of risks for attendees and associated businesses, including protests, cyber attacks, and jihadist threats. The events are also taking place against the backdrop of a fraught geopolitical climate, including the Israel-Hamas war and the Ukraine conflict, which has contributed to driving such risks. There is a high likelihood of disruption to business operations in France and Germany, due to the large influx of attendees and the safety and security measures that will be in place.

In this webinar, we will cover: 

• Prospects for protests, activism, and strikes around the competitions
• The nature of the terrorism threat to both events
• Risks from Russian sabotage and cyber operations
• The impact of the Gaza and Ukraine wars on security at major events
• The implications of these risks for businesses

This webinar will take place on Thursday, 13 June at 1000hrs New York / 1500hrs London / 1600hrs Paris / 1800hrs Dubai. It will also include an opportunity for you to pose questions to our panel.
