Don’t damage your deals: webinar will explore how governance impacts each stage of investment lifecycle
On 2 September, Kenyan law firm G&A Advocates LLP, in collaboration with Raising Capital and Board Savvy, will host a webinar on the key role of corporate governance in building investor trust and ensuring successful fundraising.
Good governance is a critical pillar in the success of any business, says G&A Advocates LLP, a leading law firm in Kenya with offices in Nairobi and Eldore. Governance often serves as the key differentiator between enterprises, influencing not just reputation, but also financial performance and long-term viability.
When fundraising in today’s competitive market, the quality of governance practices can be a make-or-break factor in the success of a fundraising effort. Weak governance structures are a common reason why deals collapse during due diligence or why investment partnerships ultimately unravel. Accordingly, investors are increasingly scrutinizing governance frameworks to determine the integrity, transparency, and sustainability of enterprises before committing funds.
Given this critical importance of strong governance, G&A Advocates LLP, in collaboration with Raising Capital and Board Savvy, is set to host a webinar on “The Role of Corporate Governance in Fundraising” on Tuesday, 2 September at 11am EAT, with a panel of experts exploring key issues and lessons.
Corporate and finance lawyer Nelson Karumba of G&A Advocates LLP will moderate a discussion with corporate governance expert CS Lousiana Kayika of Board Savvy; Isaac Shiundu, an Associate Manager, Corporate Finance at Raisin Capital, and
Priscilla Busulwa, Senior Legal Associate and Head of iGravity Uganda.
Designed for enterprises preparing for fundraising, investor deploying capital in Kenya, and professionals advising on transactions, “The Role of Corporate Governance in Fundraising” webinar is free to attend, but registration is required.
Drawing from real-life practical experiences, the webinar will explore corporate governance integrations that help enterprises raise capital effectively whilst also ensuring that long-term and healthy relationships with investors are maintained. The expert panel will canvass how strong governance frameworks influence investor confidence, drive operational discipline, and mitigate legal and regulatory risks, and highlight how governance impacts each stage of the fundraising lifecycle.
