In today’s world, where fractured geopolitics causes repeated shocks to supply and demand, and the pace of technological innovation and changing customer demands seem to require companies to constantly reinvent themselves, pressures on the board are greater than ever. In particular, the familiar paradigm of the annual strategy cycle is in urgent need of redesign. Join our one-day summit to hear from experts in positive risk governance for corporate boards and learn strategies for success in this new, more demanding environment.  
Sessions include:
  • Boardroom Dynamics – The Impact of Risk on Boardroom and Corporate Culture

  • How to Future – Proof the Company Through Succession Planning 

  • AI and Emerging Technologies – The Impact on Strategic Planning Cycles
