Today’s business world is facing various challenges and risks therefore organizations should find ways to “navigate” through difficult times without shipwrecking. Becoming more resilient, agile and ready to embrace necessary change means for organizations to employ their inner strengths in supporting growth. Therefore, sustainable business continuity ensures that they can withstand disruptions while maintaining essential functions for long-term success. Moreover, incorporating practices and strategies which will allow them to continue operations effectively while minimizing their impact on the environment and promoting social responsibility, becomes a necessity. Business continuity is related directly to the capacity of companies to plan for unforeseen disruptions while considering long-term sustainability goals. Integrating agility and readiness into business continuity strategies enables organizations not only to survive disruptions but also to thrive in the aftermath of risk management and crisis management, incorporating sustainable environmental, social and governance criteria (ESG) into business operations, as well as continuous improvement should be considered for stronger stakeholder engagement and more effective communication. Business continuity management provides a comprehensive framework to prepare for and respond to crises and disasters that can disrupt business operations by: minimizing risks, developing plans and procedures for rapid recovery, enhancing resilience and competitive advantage. The 12th edition of the ICMIE 2025 conference is opening the debate on business continuity as a natural follow-up to increasing business resilience (ICMIE 2023) and business change and digital transformation (ICMIE 2021). The conference aims to create a debate forum for academics and researchers, practitioners and business representatives inviting them to contribute, share their ideas, and cutting-edge research and build stronger organizations, more agile, resilient, able to evolve and be successful in a challenging business environment.
