The Directors Connect,

About the event

The Directors’ Connect is conceived as a result of expressed interest by our large and engaged membership in having a credible networking forum, to share governance practices in different organisations, countries and cultures from an understanding that governance issues are more similar than they are different.

Directors’ Connect is an exclusive invitation-only networking forum primarily for Board Members and Senior Executives with the potential to be Board Members, providing an opportunity to listen to thought leaders and seasoned industry experts on key corporate Governance issues. It enables them to exchange notes on governance practices in their respective organizations and share insights, perspective and experiences on key issues to fulfil fiduciary responsibilities effectively. This prime initiative is designed to be an interactive boardroom experience sharing platform for business leaders. Important board issues and the challenges facing Indian boards will be discussed at the Directors’ Connect networking meetings.

Association of Independent Directors of India

Since our beginning in 2015, AIDI has been committed to advancing its primary objective of strengthening corporate governance and the institution of Independent and professional Directors through global best boardroom practices. We are committed to facilitating a healthy interface with the government to promote the effectiveness of the Boards as per the Companies Act, 2013. Under the guidance of our illustrious advisory board, AIDI is devoted to enhancing the economic sustainability of the enterprise and bolstering stakeholder confidence in India through Good Board Practices.

Our belief is that well-connected Boards are associated with better performance, higher ROA, stronger governance and accountability mechanisms compared with the performance of less-connected Boards. From AIDI’s own institutional experience, we understand the value of strong leadership networks in encouraging more qualified individuals to take on challenging leadership roles at the Board level.

Furthermore, AIDI has been setting benchmarks in delivering meticulously crafted educational seminars/workshops on key issues pertaining to corporate governance. Our events are graced by the presence of some of the biggest names in the corporate landscape of the country, most of which are accomplished C-Suite Executives & popular Board Members. We recently conducted a seminar for Id's/Board Members on “Accelerating Gender Diversity on Boards and Business Leadership”, in collaboration with the International Finance Corporation (IFC, World Bank Group), on October 9, 2018 in Delhi, which was received overwhelmingly well by about 50 distinguished delegates.
