From the growing threat of cybercrime and the role of AI in the boardroom, to timely regulatory updates and practical masterclasses, the event promises fresh insights, real-world case studies and expert perspectives. Alongside thought leadership and practical sessions, you’ll have the chance to connect with peers from across Scotland’s governance community over breakfast, lunch, and closing drinks and networking.

Chaired by Walter Clark and Gary Gray from our Pinsent Masons team (both Fellows of the Chartered Governance Institute), the conference brings together senior voices from the governance community.
