About The Event

In this virtual event hosted on Dec. 3, 2025, we explored what Board Directors should focus on to effectively support a company’s drive for global growth.  Directors and companies alike learned the value of continuously adapting both long-term strategies and short-term decisions to keep pace with global shifts.

Board Directors focused on how to effectively support a company’s drive for global growth by gaining both strategic insight and practical understanding of the global landscape. They learned to consider a wide range of influential factors, including shifting geopolitics, global economic trends, the impact of trade tariffs, access to international labor pools, and the short- and long-term implications for supply chains.
