What’s Affecting Corporate Governance?: The Impact on Your Organization. Learn From Experts at the 2019 Directors Forum Conference in San Diego

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 15, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Changes in the political landscape have created changes in taxation and governance. Global risks are ever increasing, as are security concerns. Activism and technology interruptions such as blockchain are stirring up what was once the status quo. Laws, such as the SB 826 in California, requiring public companies headquartered in California to have female directors, has the potential of serving as a pilot for many other states. What will these changes mean for the year ahead, and how are directors, managers and shareholders navigating these changes? 

Directors Forum 2019, hosted by Corporate Directors Forum from January 13 – 15, 2019 at the University of San Diego campus, brings together investors, directors and management to engage in open, off-the-record dialogue about today’s pressing governance issues.  It is designed to encourage personal interaction between attendees and the nation's leading corporate governance authorities. Attendance at the event is limited to ensure maximum participation and provide quality networking opportunities.
Keynote speakers are: 

• Ray Cameron, Head of Investment Stewardship – The Americas, Blackrock
• John Carreyrou, Pulitzer Prize-Winning Journalist & Author, Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup
• Lenny Comma, Chairman, President & CEO, Jack in the Box Inc.
• Robert Jackson Jr., Commissioner, U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission
