The Diligent Market Intelligence (DMI) Stewardship Series has brought together investors, issuers and advisors to improve shareholder engagement through greater education and networking opportunities on issues of shareholder activism, corporate governance, proxy voting, and ESG.

Following the successful launch of the program back in 2024 in New York City & London, we have brought our third event on February 25th 2025 in New York.
