ORLANDO, Fla. – Disaster Recovery Journal’s latest conference – DRJ Spring 2025 – brought together 500 in-person attendees, 200 sponsors and board members, and 100 on-demand participants — for four days of insight, inspiration and invaluable networking at the Renaissance Orlando at SeaWorld®.

The March 23-26 event featured dozens of sessions focused on business continuity, risk management, IT resilience and organizational leadership. As always, DRJ’s goal was to provide attendees with practical takeaways and fresh strategies they could implement immediately within their organizations.

DRJ is, and has always been, the largest and most influential event in the business continuity and resilience industry. No other conference comes close to the depth of our agenda, the size of our community or the strength of our reputation. We’ve built this event over decades, and we take pride in delivering unmatched value to professionals at every level.

“Every year I am humbled by the energy and passion our community brings to this event,” said DRJ President Bob Arnold. “To every attendee, speaker, sponsor and staff member — thank you. You’re the reason this conference continues to grow and thrive.”

Networking remained the crown jewel of the event. From breakout sessions to informal meetups and the popular exhibit hall, attendees connected with peers who share their challenges and goals. Monday night’s hospitality event gave everyone a chance to unwind with great food, drinks and conversation.

DRJ extends sincere thanks to the sponsors who made the event possible:

Platinum sponsors: Fusion Risk Management, Crisis24, and Everbridge.
Gold sponsors: Expedient, Recovery Point, and Remver BC/DR Consulting.
Silver sponsors: 4C Strategies, AlertMedia, Assured Data Protection, Connecta Satellite Solutions, Mitratech, MorganFranklin Consulting, and RockDove Solutions.
Bronze sponsors: CLDigital, CloudSAFE, Continuity Innovations, MEO Continuity, Noggin, Premier Continuum, Regroup, Specialized Data Systems, StormGeo, Veoci, and Wolf & Company.

“DRJ wouldn’t be what it is without the support of our sponsors and partners,” said Arnold. “We’re deeply grateful for the relationships we’ve built and the shared commitment to advancing our profession.”
