Trends, Insights & Best Practices
Take your Capital Markets Day to the next level
Capital Markets Days are the best possible opportunities for a company to control its narrative when it has the full attention of the capital markets and the financial media. For investor relations teams, a capital markets day is the perfect opportunity to convene management, tighten the equity story and deliver their message to and boost confidence among the investment community.
However, as capital markets day audiences become more diverse and the market environment is increasingly complex, the expectations of capital markets days have become more demanding.
FGS Global and IR Impact are joining forces and bringing together leading investor relations professionals for this workshop, which aims to provide guidance and share updated best practices on strategic communications during capital markets days.
Workshop members will exchange ideas, debate topics and learn from their peers about how best to adapt their approach to capital markets days and have the best impact in the modern environment. Spaces are limited, so apply for your place today.
