5
00:00:23,750 --> 00:00:29,420
However, the implications of integrating this system posed various risks that needed to be carefully

6
00:00:29,420 --> 00:00:30,200
managed.

7
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,030
The primary concern was reputational risk.

8
00:00:35,060 --> 00:00:41,210
The team, led by CEO Laura Simmons, was acutely aware of the potential fallout from public perception

9

29
00:02:17,110 --> 00:02:19,420
standards to avoid hefty fines.

30
