Crisis response has been, is and will always be an essential part of the communications function.

Every organization must be ready to pivot at a moment’s notice for unexpected occurrences that are the norm in a world where crises can come out of nowhere, at unprecedented speed. 

More than ever, PR pros must expect the unexpected. And with the consequences of getting crisis comms wrong having never been more severe, the need for counsel is greater than ever.

That’s where the PRWeek Crisis Comms Conference comes in.

It’s a day of hearing from the industry’s brightest minds. It’s a day where you can network with 200-plus fellow communicators. It’s a day on which you should be prepared to take a lot of notes. And it’s a day you’ll leave armed with lessons you can apply to your own practice.

PR pros are wrestling with the need to be equally adept at preventing crises before they happen and minimizing damage when they do occur. No matter your discipline or work environment — corporate affairs; employee engagement; HR; IT; legal; agency; in-house; nonprofit; tech vendor; academia and more — the 2025 PRWeek Crisis Comms Conference is a day you won’t want to miss.
