Session 6: Charting the Course: The Status of Safe Harbour in 2025

This session will explore the safe harbour framework through the lived experiences of a company director who has navigated it. Hear first-hand how safe harbour shaped decision-making, the challenges they faced, and the practical lessons for boards, advisers and other stakeholders.
