NEWS > IBIS Conference 2026: “Energy Security & Global Stability: Strategic Leadership in an Era of Disruption”

The International Conference on Business and Integral Security (IBIS 2026) is set to return as a 2 day event on November 19th and 20th, 2026, with the topic: Energy Security & Global Stability: Strategic Leadership in an Era of Disruption, bringing together global scholars, policymakers, industry experts, and innovators in an engaging online format. The conference is jointly organized by the Swiss School of Business and Management Geneva, the University of Applied Sciences in Security and Safety Zagreb, and Paris School of Management (PSM).

Strategic Leadership in an Era of Disruption

IBIS 2026 focuses on the growing interconnections among energy security, international stability, and business resilience in a world shaped by geopolitical tensions, the climate transition, and rapid digital transformation.

Recent disruptions in global energy routes and supply chains have shown how quickly regional instability can affect inflation, financial markets, consumer prices, and strategic decision-making. In this context, the conference provides a timely platform to explore how governments and organizations can respond to energy shocks and build more resilient and sustainable systems.

Participants will discuss:

  • Energy security and geopolitical risk
  • Business resilience and crisis management
  • Global supply chain stability
  • Sustainable economic systems and climate transition
  • Protection of critical infrastructure
  • Strategic leadership in times of disruption
  • Digital transformation (AI, IoT, blockchain, big data)
  • Information and integral security
