Briefing Session - The Arctic’s Rising Geopolitical Risk: Implications for Global Business

The Arctic has shifted from a remote frontier to a critical arena of geopolitical competition, reshaping global security dynamics, supply chains, and strategic risk for multinational organizations.

The current focus on Greenland overshadows the broader strategic changes in the Arctic. As climate change opens new shipping routes and access to critical resources, major powers are accelerating military postures, alliance coordination, and economic competition across the region. These developments are no longer theoretical – they carry real implications for businesses with global exposure.

In this session, where our analysts will explore:

• How great-power competition is transforming the Arctic security environment
• What NATO expansion, Russia’s posture, and China’s ambitions mean for global stability
• Emerging risks tied to shipping routes, energy, minerals, and critical infrastructure
• What organizations should be monitoring now to stay ahead of disruption

We hope you’ll join us for a timely discussion on why the Arctic is now a frontline risk issue – and how decision-makers should prepare.
