Governance & stakeholders activism
What are the new challenges

Tuesday, 29 September | 6:00 PM – 8:30 PM (CEST - GMT+1) Register

Corporate governance is entering a new era.

Stewardship practices are evolving rapidly, geopolitical and technological risks are intensifying, and shareholder activism is reaching record levels globally.

Boards, executives and investors are increasingly expected to navigate a complex environment in which financial performance, long-term value creation, governance, resilience and stakeholder expectations are closely interconnected. At the same time, activist shareholders are becoming more sophisticated, deploying new strategies and challenging companies on issues ranging from capital allocation and corporate strategy to board composition, executive leadership and sustainability.

FTI Consulting and ESCP's Institute For Corporate Governance will bring together leading experts to explore the key trends shaping Corporate Governance and Shareholder Activism today.
