The first 48 hours decide the outcome.
Business guide to surviving a crisis
Could your company hold together through the first 48 hours of a major crisis? What happens when the power goes down, the internet fails and part of your workforce cannot get to work?

We are building a live network of companies and institutions that can meet a crisis without losing their nerve or their profits. Handling a crisis well costs far less than repairing the damage afterwards.

key state institutions

GetReady! (PřipravmeSe!) is a joint platform of the Centre for an Informed Society, the European Values Center for Security Policy and the Prague Centre for Media Skills.
Bringing together leading figures from the armed forces, the security community and crisis management with the people who run Czech business, we give companies a working method for withstanding systemic shocks, from cyberattacks and blackouts to the breakdown of supply chains.
Connecting experts with business and turning theory into training
The best investment? Being ready.
Companies now face threats that tend to arrive together: broken supply chains, sabotage,
cyberattacks, an unstable energy supply and information operations. Being ready for them is a competitive advantage.
40 %
of staff never make it in to work once transport collapses.
19
days is the average time it takes to restore data after an outage or an attack.
75 %
of payment transactions freeze in the opening phase of a crisis.
Book your simulation
A simulation is a training ground for decision making. In a safe setting, your company gets a full rehearsal of how it behaves once the usual procedures stop working.
Get Ready for a Crisis
Are you prepared for a scenario that Western intelligence services anticipate within 3 years?
How will you maintain continuity when the state's logistical and energy infrastructure is overloaded?
Do you have a plan for sudden supply chain disruptions and restrictions on the free movement of goods?
Can you set clear priorities during a massive migration wave, concurrent cyberattacks, and sabotage?
BLACKOUT
After 4 hours of power outage, mobile networks shut down. After 8 hours, 4 out of 5 gas stations close.
On average, 40% of employees will not report to work once schools close or public transit stops running.
In Spain in April 2025, a 10-hour blackout caused damages exceeding 40 billion CZK. Payment terminals failed, freezer inventories spoiled, and 35,000 people were stranded on trains.
Readiness for a possible crisis is standard equipment for any well run company. Working directly with the country’s security institutions through simulations showed us clearly what can happen, and what we need to change so that we limit the damage and come out of these situations stronger.
