The power of Governance in turbulent times In a world shaped by constant change and global challenges, strong leadership and sound decision-making are more important than ever. This keynote will reflect on the current geopolitical climate and explore how organisations can stay resilient, adaptable, and forward-thinking. It will set the tone for the conference by highlighting the importance of thoughtful governance in navigating today’s complex environment. James Linder Lead Economist, PwC Channel Islands |

Disrupting the traditional CoSec role The company secretary role has traditionally been rooted in the boardroom, preparing packs, taking minutes, and supporting directors in person. Governance is now being reshaped by disruption. Virtual meetings, outsourced support, and hybrid delivery models are redefining how boards operate. Technology creates opportunities for broader participation and diversity, yet it also raises challenges around culture, cohesion, and decision making. Terése Price Founder, Managing Director & Company Secretary, Virteffic Limited |
