Convene, a global leader in board management and governance solutions, is excited to announce its return at the Australian Governance Summit (AGS) 2025, this time as an Exhibitor Sponsor. Scheduled to take place on March 11-12, the summit is expected to bring together directors, executives, and governance professionals across the country and beyond.

Hosted by the Australian Institute of Company Directors (AICD), the AGS 2025, with a theme “Beyond the Horizon”, is set to tackle all potential challenges boards and their organisations are likely to face — from cyber security, climate control, geopolitical tensions, the emergence of artificial intelligence, and sustainability. The event will also explore the transformative opportunities these challenges present.

This premier forum will focus on addressing such pressing governance challenges while uncovering the best practices and strategies that shape board effectiveness and organisational resilience. All this and more will be explored through keynote presentations and Q&A sessions with the most respected voices in the industry, including PwC Australia Chair John M. Green FAICD and Deputy Chancellor of the University of Melbourne Wendy Stops GAICD.
