Board governance priorities 2027: AI, cyber risk, and succession

Register now

Does your board have the expertise, information and processes to oversee what is coming next? 

PwC’s 2026 Annual Corporate Directors Survey suggests many directors aren’t sure. More than half (55%) believe at least one colleague should be replaced, 71% say their boards need to strengthen AI skills, and 69% name cybersecurity, data privacy or intellectual property risks as their top AI-related concern.

In this live session, Barbara Berlin and Ariel Smilowitz of PwC’s Governance Insights Center unpack what directors said and what it means for the year ahead.

They look at where boards are making progress and where gaps remain: board expertise and succession, AI oversight, the cyber risks that come with it, candid board assessments and sharper strategy oversight. 

Expect practical examples and clear takeaways for board agendas in 2027.

Topics

Benchmark against your peers

How directors rate their own boards on expertise and strategy oversight, and where high-performing boards tend to go further.

A clearer approach to AI oversight

Why information linking AI outcomes, risks and business performance is often missing, and how boards can close that gap.

Practical steps on cybersecurity

How boards are increasing CISO interaction, clarifying incident escalation protocols and building director education as AI raises the stakes.

Priorities for the year ahead

What directors are watching on geopolitics, regulation and board composition, and what to put on the 2027 agenda.
