ACT Annual Dinner

Join fellow directors, senior leaders and governance professionals for one of the ACT's premier business and governance events, the Canberra Annual Dinner.

A long-standing highlight of the ACT events calendar, this highly anticipated evening brings together the Canberra business and director community to celebrate the connections, achievements and conversations that shape our region's future. It is an opportunity to reconnect with colleagues, strengthen your professional network and reflect on the opportunities and challenges facing boards and organisations today.

We are delighted to welcome The Honourable Justice Michael Lee, Judge of the Federal Court of Australia, for an exclusive fireside chat. Having presided over several of Australia's most closely watched corporate and governance-related matters, including proceedings involving The Star Entertainment Group and the landmark Qantas ground workforce outsourcing case, Justice Lee has had a unique vantage point on issues of governance, accountability, organisational culture, leadership and public trust.

Drawing on his experience at the forefront of significant corporate and public interest litigation, Justice Lee will share reflections on the evolving challenges facing boards and executives, including oversight, risk, culture, decision-making and stakeholder expectations. This thought-provoking conversation will provide directors with valuable insights into navigating complexity, scrutiny and accountability in today's governance landscape.

For those unable to attend in person, the fireside chat will also be available via livestream, enabling directors and business leaders outside Canberra to participate virtually.

Whether attending in person or online, this is an opportunity to gain valuable insights, connect with peers and be part of an important conversation on leadership, governance and the issues shaping Australia's future.

With places strictly limited for in-person attendance, we encourage you to secure your ticket early.

Please note that seating will be pre-allocated for in-person guests. If you would like to be seated with other registered guests, or would like to book a table, please contact us at nationalevents@aicd.com.au.
