​Alpha Board Forum
Navigating Corporate Strategy, Risk & Governance in the AI Era


​The Alpha Board Forums bring together the world's most influential decision-makers to shape the future of corporate leadership in the intelligence era. These exclusive gatherings unite visionary board directors, C-suites, AI pioneers, policymakers, and thought leaders to tackle the most consequential challenges and opportunities facing boards today.

​Each forum serves as a crucial nexus where governance meets innovation - where directors and executives gain the insights, relationships, and frameworks needed to lead with confidence as AI transforms business and society.
