ILA Governance Summit 2025

Experience the premier event for governance professionals in Luxembourg at the ILA Governance Summit. As the evolution of the renowned Directors’ Day, this summit has become the must-attend gathering for anyone passionate about corporate governance. Dive into cutting-edge topics, engage with thought leaders, and expand your network among the most influential peers in the field. Don’t miss your opportunity to be part of the conversation shaping the future of governance. 

This year’s programme features an update on ILA’s Strategy 2030, a keynote address by David Baverez, author of “Welcome to the War Economy!”, and forward-looking discussions on the future of governance and effective boards. Attendees will also receive the latest insights on governance topics relevant to foundations, associations, SMEs, start-ups and scale-ups, investment funds, banks, and insurance companies. 

We look forward to welcoming many of our more than 3000 members at the Hémicycle of the European Convention Centre for an inspiring day focused on corporate governance!
