IR Breakfast Briefing: Enhancing Investor-Company Dialogue
Join us for an insightful discussion where we'll explore the dynamic dialogue between (IROs) and investors.
The IR Society and the Investor Forum recently partnered to publish a comprehensive assessment of current relations between companies and investors ‘Shaping Tomorrow’s Dialogues: Bridging Gaps Between Companies and Investors.’
Our collaboration has highlighted the significance of fostering stronger, more cooperative partnerships and revitalising the dialogue between investors and companies. Investor relations thrives on meaningful interactions, where dialogue serves as the cornerstone of trust-building. Trust, in turn, lays the foundation for successful investor-company relationships.
Our partnership seeks to bring together investors and IROS to build genuine connections. We'll delve into the purpose and objectives of dialogue, distinguishing between engagements for information and those aimed at value creation. Together, we'll debunk myths, deliberate on best practices, and exchange invaluable insights and tips for both companies and investors.
Don't miss out on this opportunity to gain fresh perspectives, network with industry peers, and to positively enhance and revitalise investor-company dialogue.
