At least 40% of non-executive directors should be women

The so-called “Women on Boards” Directive aims to introduce transparent recruitment procedures in companies so that at least 40% of non-executive director posts or 33% of all director posts are occupied by the under-represented sex. 

Women on Board will launch a survey to see how Belgian organisations and Boards feel about the new Women on Boards Directive. 
We will present the results of this survey at this event and together with several speakers discuss the implications in Belgium.

We look forward to seeing and hearing you about this directive.

Boosting diversity and gender balance: a business perspective, Philippe Lambrecht, President legal affairs Committee Business Europe

Women On Boards Directive : a Belgian legal perspective, Fleur Vanswijgenhoven, Associate Liedekerke, Corporate & Finance Practice Group

Gaelle Helsmoortel, Chairperson Women on Board
