Meet I-Construct’s mentors and industry experts in our regular expert sessions designed specifically to help your business develop and grow.
I-Construct is a supply chain development and innovation support project designed to help UK-based companies* access opportunities in the construction market and develop new products and services within their businesses.
Benefit from our experts’ passion and experience as thought leaders within the construction sector and supply chain, as they share their learning and offer guidance and essential market insight into key areas of business.
Plus all of our expert sessions include a networking session – an opportunity for everyone to meet informally and develop together.
On 10th June, Janice Pittis will discuss how you can reduce the risk of a cyber attack on your systems.
As the construction industry moves forward, rapidly embracing new technology, the risks are becoming more pervasive. It’s no longer just a case of making sure offices and building sites are secure from thieves.
Cyber security’s core function is to protect the devices we all use (smartphones, laptops, tablets and computers), and the services we access from theft or damage. It’s also about preventing unauthorised access to the vast amounts of personal and business information we store on these devices, and online.
Join us to look at the action you should consider taking to ensure your business is cyber secure.
