Business Continuity

Hampton Roads is a coastal community. Our region benefits greatly from our proximity to the Atlantic, but it also poses significant risks.  The threat of hurricanes and floods loom at this time of year, and while your home may be stocked with water and flashlights, what precautions have you taken to safeguard your business? On today's broadcast we'll discuss the importance of a well planned and rehearsed "business continuity plan." These strategies are designed to not only protect your business but allow it to continue to function in the event of a local or national emergency.
