One day for the people who sit on Bermuda boards, and the people who should. Technology, AI, digital assets and cyber are now board matters. BoardX is where directors, executives and investors get fluent together.

Bermuda's international companies are being reshaped by technology. Reinsurers are deploying AI in underwriting and claims. Digital asset businesses are being built here under one of the clearest frameworks in the world. Investors expect boards to understand both.

That puts a new demand on directors. Boards need people who can ask the right questions about AI, data, cyber and digital assets, and who can hold management to account on them. Companies are looking for those directors now.

BoardX is a one-day, plenary-only programme built around that need. No breakout rooms and no parallel tracks: one room, one conversation, so that the whole group leaves with the same shared language. It brings together the regulator, the Government, sitting chairs and directors, and the practitioners who advise Bermuda's boards.

The first X series event, ComplianceX, drew more than 70 compliance professionals in June 2026. BoardX is the second.

Who this is for
  • Directors of Bermuda insurers, reinsurers, funds and digital asset companies
  • Executives preparing for their first board appointment
  • Investors and principals who hold or expect to hold board seats
  • Chairs and nomination committees planning board refreshment
  • Company secretaries and general counsel who support boards
Why attend
  • Hear directly what the Bermuda Monetary Authority expects of directors on technology and AI
  • Leave with a one-page list of the ten technology questions every director should be asking
  • Take part in a live cyber incident exercise from the board's seat
  • Understand how PIPA enforcement now works and what the board owns
  • Meet the chairs, directors and advisers shaping Bermuda's boards
