Swiss Board Day
Exclusively for SIoD and SIoD Plus members
The Swiss Board Day brings together senior board leaders from business, academia, and politics to explore the most relevant trends in corporate governance. Inspiring keynotes are combined with practical discussions and highly interactive exchange formats.
A central feature of the day are the Board Exchanges, enabling participants to engage in focused, small-group discussions on key boardroom topics.
Beyond content, the event offers extensive networking opportunities – from informal coffee breaks to lunch and the closing apéro – creating a unique platform for meaningful connections within Switzerland’s leading board network.
