Virtual event: Available on replay
We understand that running an IR team can pose wildly different challenges, at any given time, depending on the nature of your business, and the external factors impacting your sector. That’s why we are proud to announce the IR Magazine Sector Series – a collection of IR Magazine forum’s that took a deep dive into the most relevant challenges facing IROs in your sector.
These high-level briefings brought together IR teams from similar industries to better understand the macro factors, ESG issues, and latest approaches to investor relations within your sector.
The IR Magazine Forum ‒ Technology, Media & Telecoms brought together CFOs and heads of IR together from across Europe and North America to refine their targeting practices, ESG disclosures, and financial communications in the current environment. We heard relevant discussions from investors, analysts, and leading IR teams in the technology, media & telecoms sector about how to take your IR program to the next level.
