NEWPORT, R.I., March 26, 2026 – The International Crisis Management Conference (ICMC) has announced that registration is now open for ICMC Newport 2026, the 11th Annual International Crisis Management Conference, taking place June 15-17, 2026, in Newport, Rhode Island. The conference will bring together crisis management professionals, resilience leaders and decision-makers for three days of expert-led presentations, advanced training, and strategic networking focused on today’s evolving risk landscape.
Held at the Wyndham Newport Hotel, ICMC Newport 2026 is designed for professionals responsible for crisis preparedness, operational resilience, risk management, security, and organizational response. According to ICMC, the event builds on more than a decade of global collaboration and is intended to help attendees gain practical insights, strengthen professional networks and explore new approaches to resilience in an increasingly complex operating environment.
The conference agenda begins June 15 with a meet-and-greet reception in the evening, followed by speaker presentations and training sessions on June 16, including an evening networking cruise on Narragansett Bay. Programming continues June 17 with additional presentations and interactive tabletop exercise workshops. Conference registration is all-inclusive and covers sessions, training, breakfast and lunch on days two and three, and special event experiences. ICMC members receive a 30% discount on registration.
“As threats continue to evolve across industries, organizations need more than theory. They need practical strategies, honest conversations, and stronger connections with peers facing similar challenges,” said Robert Burton, CEO and Co-Founder of ICMC. “ICMC Newport 2026 creates that environment and helps leaders leave better prepared to respond with confidence.”
In addition to attendee registration, ICMC is also offering exhibitor and sponsorship opportunities for organizations seeking visibility with professionals responsible for crisis preparedness, risk management, and organizational resilience. ICMC states that exhibitor space is intentionally limited to support stronger interaction between attendees and solution providers. The conference audience spans more than 25 industries, including corporate security, healthcare systems, financial services, energy, government, and technology.
“ICMC is a must-attend for anyone in crisis management, business continuity, or incident response.” says Jake Paulson, Global Deputy Head of X-Force. “The thought leadership and best-practice discussions are truly rare, and the conference offers practical, real-world insight to strengthen crisis management capabilities. You will not find a better bang for your buck.”
ICMC’s mission is to empower crisis management professionals through membership, education, resources, and community support. Its annual conference serves as a flagship gathering for leaders seeking timely insights, practical tools, and meaningful collaboration across sectors.
