WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND

Investor Relations…Embracing A Changing Environment

Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

You know that’s true, but actually coping with change while you’re in the centre of the maelstrom is a challenge.

In the day-to-day business world, IROs face change on many fronts: new CFOs; new CEOs; new Board members; new corporate strategy; changes in accounting rules; new securities regulations; and, the evolution of the annual report. All these can be taken in stride.

But what about those unexpected changes? The possibility of a single Canadian regulatory body? The globalization of the markets? Hedge fund calls? The sudden surge of private equity buyouts? Market meltdowns?

Learn to embrace the ever-changing environment of investor relations by attending the CIRI Annual Conference June 15 – 17, in Tremblant, PQ.

Three distinct program tracks offer something for everyone, regardless of IR experience, or company size and budget.

The Small Cap Track includes the building blocks to develop a successful IR program: educating management & board about ‘real IR’; a review of securities law; roadshow basics; and IR outsourcing.

The Senior IR Track is by invitation only to senior CIRI members, who will discuss topics such as: debt markets and the credit crunch; private equity investors; globalization; and board evaluations.

General Sessions offer the latest on financial reporting on the internet: guidelines for conference calls; capital market fraud investigations; and annual report effectiveness.

In this ever-changing world, you can still rely on the CIRI Conference to provide a sound foundation to help you cope with both anticipated and unexpected events. Surround yourself with the latest time-saving IR products and services from the experts in the Exhibit Showcase. Join more than 300 IR colleagues from across Canada in Tremblant in June.

See you there!
