SUMMARY:AI in the Boardroom: Opportunity\, Risk and Directors' Duties
DESCRIPTION:This panel discussion will explore how NEDs and Chairs can use AI to support better decision-making\, interrogate board papers\, and strengthen constructive challenge in the boardroom. \nCrucially\, it will also examine how the use of AI aligns with directors’ duties and responsibilities — including whether\, and to what extent\, reliance on AI tools supports or risks undermining a NED’s obligations. \nLegal and ethical considerations will be addressed\, including issues of confidentiality\, data security\, accountability\, and the boundaries of appropriate AI use at board level. Expect practical insights on how to use AI responsibly as a director\, where it can genuinely add value\, and how to evidence that its use enhances — rather than replaces — sound governance. \nThis session will also provide an opportunity to exchange experiences with peers and build confidence in integrating AI into your own board practice. \nSpeakers: \nLegal viewpoint \n\n\n\nAlexander Amato-Cravero is Director of Emerging Technology Advisory and Legal Operations Advisory at Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer\nGareth Sykes is a specialist in corporate governance matters and is a Partner and UK Head of Corporate Governance Advisory at Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer\n\nNED viewpoint \n\nRuth Pickering is a non-executive director and technologist.\n\n\n\nTo Attend:  \n\nTo attend\, you will need to select the relevant ticket option and complete the event registration form.\n(Members remember to login first before registering to the session!)\nIf attending in-person\, the event will take place in Central London.\nIf attending online\, dial-in details will be distributed the day before the event.

SUMMARY:Cyber Governance Code: Reduce Cyber Risk and Enhance Resilience - Guidance for All Boards and NEDs
DESCRIPTION:Join NEDonBoard for an exclusive webinar for members\, featuring representatives from the UK Government and the Department for Digital\, Culture\, Media and Sport (DCMS)\, exploring the Cyber Governance Code of Practice and what it means for boards. \nCyber risk is no longer solely an IT or audit committee issue—it is a board-level governance responsibility. This session is designed for all non-executive directors\, regardless of sector or cyber expertise\, providing practical guidance on how boards can oversee cyber risk effectively and fulfil their governance duties. \nThe webinar will explore the Cyber Governance Code as a practical framework that boards of all organisations can adopt to strengthen oversight\, improve decision-making and enhance organisational resilience. Attendees will gain an understanding of the board’s role in cyber governance\, the key principles of the Code\, and how to embed them into board practice\, regardless of the organisation’s size or level of cyber maturity. \nInsights will include additional cyber resources to enable NEDs to further challenge cyber practices; and conclude with a live Q&A\, offering members the opportunity to engage directly with policymakers and discuss the practical application of the Code in the boardroom. \n\nSpeakers: \n\n\nJohn Maguire – Head of Cyber Resilience and Incentives within the Cyber Security and Digital Identity Directorate at the Department for Digital\, Culture\, Media and Sport (DCMS – UK Gov). \n\nAlyssa Fisher – Cyber Governance Policy and Engagement Advisor at the Department for Digital\, Culture\, Media and Sport (DCMS – UK Gov). She is responsible for delivering government policy on strengthening board‑level governance of cyber risk and improving organisational resilience.
