Sponsorship


Introduction
DRIE-SWO is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the promotion of the business continuity management profession in South Western Ontario and the exchange of related information among its members.

DRIE-SWO hosts full-day educational symposia twice a year which are free to members of all DRIE chapters. DRIE-SWO also publishes (1) a semi-annual newsletter, (2) bimonthly member updates and (3) a professional website.
