How are members of the buy-side corporate access dealing with the new normal?

Last year was one of tremendous change for the global capital markets, including changes in regulations that have influenced investor sentiment, decision-making, and how the investment community engage with public companies. These changes, combined with recent events surrounding Covid-19, have had a huge impact on IR programs and investor outreach. We’ve partnered with Q4 Inc. to bring together a panel of buy-side corporate access professionals from across North America to share their views on these structural shifts and help guide you through this unprecedented time. 

The event has two features to enable you to get the most out of our speakers - a panel discussion followed by private 1:1 meetings with the speakers. More information can be found below.
