Webinars
A series of webinars designed to support directors and senior executives in fulfilling their fiduciary, strategic and governance responsibilities.
The China for Directors Webinar Series is a national online program designed to strengthen China literacy and strategic capability at board level.
As China’s economy evolves and geopolitical settings shift, Australian directors face a more complex operating environment. Decisions relating to China now sit at the intersection of commercial opportunity, regulatory scrutiny, geopolitical risk and national interest.
This four-part webinar series provides directors and senior executives with practical insights to support informed, strategic and risk-aware decision-making.
After decades of investment-led industrial growth, China is transitioning toward advanced manufacturing, high technology, green industries and domestic consumption. Growth has moderated, but structural transformation continues to reshape global supply chains, capital flows and competitive dynamics.
For Australian boards, the challenge is not simply whether to engage with China, but how to engage with clarity, capability and sound governance.
The China for Directors Webinar Series will:
Strengthen China literacy and board-level capability
Address strategic, governance and regulatory considerations
Examine economic, policy and geopolitical developments
Support risk-informed engagement aligned with Australia’s national interests
Equip directors to identify opportunity while managing complexity
