LATAM Resilience Awards
The annual awards that recognize, thank and promote the work of the people and institutions driving organizational resilience, business continuity and risk management across Latin America.
Recognizing those who make the region more resilient
The LATAM Resilience Awards (LRA) were created by SCP Resiliencia (Capresiliencia), as Organizing Committee, to recognize and promote the work of men, women and institutions in favor of organizational resilience. They have been awarded every year since 2021.
With these awards we seek to encourage reflection on managing disruptive events, showcase the solutions organizations design and apply, and inspire the professional community to keep preparing to anticipate major change and overcome it. Winners receive a commemorative trophy, a recognition letter and coverage across Resiliencia LATAM's channels, and may use the “LATAM Resilience Awards Winner — LRAW” seal.
