Convene, a market leader in governance solutions, is excited to announce its Corporate Sponsorship for the Australian Governance Summit 2024. Taking place from March 20th to 21st at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC), AGS2024 will delve into pivotal corporate governance issues facing Australia’s business landscape.

The AGS2024’s theme is ‘Forefront’, centering around how Australian directors can lead in addressing governance challenges faced by directors in the modern business landscape. Key topics include AI governance and cybersecurity, and the 2050 net-zero commitments.

Convene is excited to showcase its leadership in the ESG and Board Governance space at the summit. Representing Convene is our Partner from GovernWith and CEO Fiona Mercer GAICD. Fiona will be part of a panel discussion titled, “Inside the Boardroom: Building a Successful Relationship with Management” on Day 2, March 21 — sharing insights on fostering strong relationships between boards and management teams.

Our commitment to sustainability and innovation positions us as the premier choice for organizations seeking cutting-edge governance solutions. Among these are:

  • Convene: A secure, cloud-based board management software, designed to streamline board meeting processes and enterprise-level collaboration with tools for private and shared annotations and secure document review and signing.
  • Convene ESG: An ESG reporting software for easy data collection, peer benchmarking, and automated report generation. With Convene ESG, sustainability reports are guaranteed to be fully compliant with the latest sustainability guidelines and reporting requirements.
  • Convene in Teams (CiT): A Teams-based meeting management software built to simplify meeting workflows using Microsoft apps and services.

With our solutions, Convene aims to empower organisations to navigate increasing pressures to disclose sustainability information and comply with legislative requirements. Notably, aligning with internationally recognized standards like IFRS S1 & S2, which require the disclosure of climate-related data and decarbonization plans. Australian companies are mandated to comply starting July 2024.

Convene’s sponsorship emphasises its dedication to championing governance practices internationally. Michael Yap, CEO of Azeus Convene, also expressed “We’re thrilled to be part of AGS2024. This event provides an excellent opportunity to showcase why Convene is the market leader in governance solutions. We look forward to demonstrating our commitment to excellence and innovation in this space.”

As a proud corporate sponsor of AGS2024, Convene will focus on ESG reporting and how our solution will be leading the Australian market as we navigate further into the legislative requirements in this space. For questions about our products, talk to our team.
