The future boardroom
20 May 2026 | 13:00 GST
What will the event cover?
The boardroom is being reinvented — and the Middle East is at the centre of it.
In this webinar, Megan Pantelides, Director of Research, and Sally Yousif, Director of Middle East, will draw on data-driven research and 20 years of boardroom insight to explore what good governance looks like in 2030, and what it takes to get there.
We'll cover:
- The 2030 boardroom: what it looks like and how the Middle East will help define it.
- How to build an agile, forward-looking board that combines human and artificial intelligence.
- The evolving role of General Counsels and Board Secretaries as architects of good governance.
