Join ICR for an invitation-only governance briefing curated exclusively for ICR clients, tailored for General Counsels, C-suite leaders, board members, and senior governance, investor relations, and communications professionals. As the 2026 proxy season unfolds, boards and legal teams are operating within an increasingly complex landscape—marked by evolving investor voting policies, less predictable activism, and a rapidly shifting regulatory environment. This private discussion will be led by Gabriel Hasson, Global Head of Governance, Activism & Shareholder Advisory at ICR, drawing on his prior experience as Senior Stewardship Director at BlackRock, consultant to ISS, and M&A attorney. Participants will gain a real-time, practitioner’s perspective on how institutional investors are voting, which shareholder proposals and activism themes are gaining traction, and how leading companies are preparing their response. Designed as a highly interactive, strategic forum, the session will focus on practical actions General Counsels and boards can take before, during, and after proxy season to anticipate investor expectations, engage effectively, and proactively mitigate governance and activism risk.
