D.F. King's AGM Season Review
Insights - Events

About this event

Launching in October 2022…our Annual General Meeting Season Review for the UK & Europe in 2022. Researched and written by our specialist D.F. King team (part of Link Group), the report is eagerly awaited every year.

You can find the 2021 AGM Season Review on our website here.

The previous report showed that companies are being increasingly scrutinised for their boards’ ability to become more aligned, more inclusive and more accountable to shareholders and stakeholders – especially their impact on the environment and society.

We are giving Ahead members an exclusive preview before the launch of the 2022 report and will be hosting a webinar to present the key findings in October and discover what industry experts think of the findings.

You will also have the opportunity to pose your questions, thoughts and concerns to your panel during the live Q&A.

Please register your interest by booking at the below link and a member of the team will be in touch once further details are released.
