Mission Log: Digital Twins, Sleepless Nights, and the Future of GRC with Pascal Busch

In this starlog entry of Risk Is Our Business, recorded live at the Risk-In Conference in Zurich, Captain Michael Rasmussen sits down with Pascal Busch, Global Head of ERM & BCM at Acino and creator of VirtueSpark, for a deep-space transmission on the future of enterprise risk.

What keeps a seasoned risk commander up at night? Pascal opens up about the unknown anomalies in the system, such as inefficiencies, blind spots, and missed signals that still plague too many GRC programs. But he’s not just scanning for threats, he’s building the future. From digital twins to decision intelligence, Pascal charts a course toward a risk program that’s faster, smarter, and fully integrated into the mission of value creation.

Together, they explore where his tech journey is today, where he wants it to be in two years, and how risk professionals can move from compliance copilots to strategic navigators, guiding organizations through the turbulence of uncertainty with precision and purpose.

If your risk program feels stuck in the past, it’s time to reroute power to the engines. Because as Pascal makes clear, the future of GRC isn’t about avoiding risk, it’s about managing it at warp speed.
