We are happy to announce the return of our Clayton Utz partnered lunches this year. This lunch is an excellent opportunity to hear from a current director about challenges and learning from their board journey, their tips for aspiring directors and opportunities as well as other current topical issues in their sector.
Come along with questions - we look forward to seeing you face-to-face again.
