Our mission

Internationally, 52% of boards list technology disruption as their #1 risk.

Cybercrime and data security is the number one issue keeping directors awake at night.

63% of directors believe innovation and R&D is key to boosting business productivity.

Our headlines and news feeds are awash with system outages, data breaches and emerging digital governance challenges such as AI and quantum computing.

The Chair of ASIC has said "There isn't a single material issue facing our institutions that doesn't require data, systems, technology and processes to effectively address."

However, only 7% of directors have a digital background. Just 16% claim any level of digital literacy. Less than 1% have experience with cyber security.

80% of ASX boards have no technology, nor cyber experience amongst their directors.

Just 38% of boards are considering adding ICT to their skills matrix.
