Governance That Helps Founders Scale
The Institute of Directors (IoD) and Ormeau Labs on governance as a competitive advantage rather than a tick-box exercise: why it matters earlier than most founders think, the role of advisors, boards and your first Non-Executive Director, and how to introduce it without slowing momentum. Talks from Deborah Morton-Dare and Simon Haslam, then a panel with Liam McStravick (TeamFeePay), Alan Carson (Cloudsmith), Fiona Jelly (Complyfirst) and Brian Cummings (Clarendon Fund Managers). Pizza and drinks afterwards.
