Free Online Events from NED Capital:
Unlock Board-Level Insight & Connections
At NED Capital, we believe that high-impact board leadership, governance excellence and strategic insight shouldn’t be the preserve of a few. Our free online events bring together experienced non-executives, board chairs, senior executives and those aspiring to board roles in an inclusive, interactive format — so you can gain new perspectives, build your network, and strengthen your boardroom presence.
Whether you’re an established Non-Executive Director (NED), a seasoned executive looking to transition, or an organisation seeking to deepen its governance capability, our events are designed to deliver real value — accessible from anywhere, at no cost. Explore what’s on offer, find the sessions that matter, and join us to engage, learn and connect.
Why attend our online events?
1. Access exceptional expertise, without cost
We curate our sessions around current board-level needs, inviting experienced NEDs, Chairs and governance specialists to share the wisdom that really matters. From exploring board composition and succession to tackling ESG, digital transformation or private equity board challenges, you’ll hear from people who’ve “been there”.
Hosting these sessions online means you can join from London, Manchester, Edinburgh, or farther afield. And with no attendee fee, you can invest time without worrying about cost.
2. Stay ahead in a rapidly evolving board environment
At a time when the role of the NED is evolving fast — with new expectations around ESG, stakeholder engagement, digital disruption and agile governance — staying current is non-negotiable. NED Capital’s events are structured to give you practical insight you can apply immediately: new tools, frameworks, case studies, real-world challenge discussion.
3. Strengthen your board network
One of the most valuable aspects of our events is the opportunity for interaction. In addition to learning from speakers, you’ll connect with peers – other non-executives, chairs, executives, search consultants – who are thinking about similar issues, challenges or transitions. These connections may spark collaboration, peer-mentoring, role leads or simply widen your board community.
4. Flexible, convenient format
All our events are online, using a reliable platform to make attendance easy. No travel required, no need for overnight stays – just your device and a connection. We schedule sessions at times that suit busy professionals, and where possible record or summarise them so you can revisit key points later.
5. From insight to action
We believe in more than passive listening. Our sessions are structured with actionable content, Q&A and discussion. Whether you are looking to strengthen your board CV, benchmark your governance practices, or assess your next board role, you’ll walk away with at least one practical step, one new connection, and a clearer perspective on the opportunities ahead.
Who should attend?
-
Experienced Non-Executive Directors seeking fresh insight into sector trends, governance pressures or board development.
