Online Webinar 1000 Brussels Belgique

While the regulatory landscape in the United States continues to shift with regard to sustainability efforts, many US companies will still be subject to global regulations, including those from Europe. In response to this, NACD Northern California is bringing together sustainability experts and board directors from Europe involved in implementing the European regulations this past year. This discussion will enable US board members to learn from the European experience of implementing climate regulations and what to expect in the future.

This event will take place on June 11, 2025, from 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM.
