The GPRC Summit 2023 in Riyadh, organised by Ejtemaat Events and hosted by Corporater, a global software company providing integrated governance, performance, risk and compliance (GPRC) solutions, brought together GRC experts, CEOs, executives and key decision makers from various industries to discuss technologies, insights and key trends shaping the future of enterprise management.
Inaugurating
the summit, Dr. Sultan Saud Alsajjan, General Manager, Governance and
Compliance, Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs and Housing, KSA,
said, "Any governance and risk management process consists of three key
elements - legislation, execution and control, which include internal
audit and compliance - but the key element of an effective GRC is the
systematisation of the above processes. Systematising these three
processes so that they function as a unit to achieve the strategic
objectives of GRC by adopting both local and international best
practices to meet the needs of all stakeholders is the key to business
excellence."
Presentations and
panel sessions at the event addressed the current drivers and trends
impacting the GRC market, which is expected to reach 134.86 billion USD
by 2030, with the enterprise software segment of the GRC market to
maintain its dominance during the forecast period. Discussions at the
event highlighted the need for organisations to focus on agility,
resilience, integrity, accountability, and engagement in risk
management.
The event also witnessed the announcement of Corporater's new office opening in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, presented by H.E. Thomas Lid Ball, Ambassador of the Kingdom of Norway to Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman and Yemen, Royal Norwegian Embassy, KSA.
"When we look at the state of GRC in 2023, one of the questions we need to ask is what our future looks like, both here in Saudi Arabia and in the global context, and what role government and corporate decisions play in today's organisational risk and compliance. For example, in the financial sector, there are over 257 regulatory changes every day, coming from 1217 regulators around the world - that's a lot of legal and regulatory changes to be aware of and deal with. But organisations need to look even further and keep up with global geopolitical and economic risks and changes in technologies and standards. So GRC is the capability of reliably achieving organisational goals through governance, managing the risks complying with laws and regulations," said Michael Rasmussen, GRC Analyst and Pundit | GRC 20/20 Research, Inc, in his keynote address.
