Governance Intelligence recently presented our 17th annual Corporate Governance Awards at a gala event in New York. We spoke with several distinguished attendees on the red carpet before the ceremony, including Thomas Germinario, senior managing director for proxy solicitation at DF King.Â
Governance Intelligence asked Germinario about the governance lessons boards and their governance teams can learn from some of 2024’s high-profile activist campaigns. He also spoke about some of the key proxy solicitation issues governance teams and their boards should be thinking about for 2025.
The awards celebrate outstanding achievements by the governance profession in areas such as hosting AGMs, compliance and ethics programs, ESG reporting, entity management, use of technology, proxy statements, investor engagement and corporate transactions.Â
