The collective mobility division of Moventia, Moventis, attended the first session of the conference entitled “Prepared Companies: the keys to anticipating and managing risks” organised by Foment del Treball in partnership with Institut Cerdà. The event, which took place on 27 April, gathered institutional representatives, experts and companies to examine the main risks affecting the business environment in 2026.

During the course of the session, Ian Livesey, Head of the B2B and B2C Division of Moventis, highlighted the importance of constant anticipation as a key factor in corporate risk management at a round table discussion alongside Raul Anguita, Head of Regional Operations at Nedgia; and Eduard Filba, Internal Auditing and Risk Control Team Manager at Celsa.

The event was opened by  Salvador Guillermo, Head of Studies and Economics at Foment del Treball, while Pere Torres, Councillor at Institut Cerdà and Director of the Risks Observatory, offered a review of the most relevant conclusions from the report entitled Observatory of Risks for Companies in Spain, which identifies 33 key risks for the coming year and underlines a growing interconnection between geopolitical, economic, climate, digital and social factors.

Anticipation and diversification as core pillars

Within the framework of this debate, moderated by Marta Bellera, Head of the Risks, Crisis and Resilience Department of Institut Cerdà, Ian Livesey said that organisations must have clear strategies in place, properly defined action plans and well structured responsibilities enabling them to react flexibly to changing scenarios.

Furthermore, he underlined the role of market, client and activity diversification as a fundamental way to reduce exposure to specific risks and to boost resilience at companies.

Geopolitics and the human factor in enterprise

During the debate alongside leading experts, the executive from Moventis said that geopolitics is no longer an isolated factor but has become a structural issue for the strategy implemented by companies, requiring it to be permanently included in decision-making and in short- and medium-term planning.

Similarly, he stressed that—beyond protocols and procedures—, the human factor is decisive in crisis management. He explained at the meeting that experience, coordination between teams, the ability to remain calm and effective communication are key issues when risks materialise.

The event was closed by Miguel Hernández, Managing Director of Institut Cerdà, who added the final touches to a conference focused on the anticipation and management of corporate risks within a context of growing complexity and interconnection of economic, geopolitical and technological factors.
