Connecting you with NEDonBoard Board and Advisory Board Members

A two-hour afternoon session on building a board, run jointly by the London NatWest Accelerator and NEDonBoard, the professional body for non-executive directors. It's pitched at founders and CEOs from pre-seed to scale-up putting together a board or advisory group, or getting governance in shape before a raise. The format is interactive rather than talks: time with experienced NEDs and ecosystem people on what a board is actually for and how to find the right members. At NatWest's hub, 94 Moorgate, 14:00 to 16:00, in person. Free, but the Eventbrite tiers were showing sold out or not-yet-released at last check — watch for returns or a second release.

Why go: most founders assemble a board under investor pressure and regret the choices. This is a cheap way to think it through first, with NEDs in the room and NatWest's accelerator team hosting. Best for scale-up founders heading into a round.
