Description:
ITNEA is the UK association for non-executive Directors (NEDs) and non-executive Chairmen of listed IT, Telecommunications and related Media companies - some times also referred to as Telecommunication, Media and Technology (TMT) or Information & Computing Technology (ICT) companies.
ITNEA in brief * ITNEA has over 370 members, holding well over 1000 directorships between them.
* These directorships range from private start-ups to FTSE 100 companies, in all sectors, both UK and international.
* The common thread is that to qualify for membership, they must hold a non-executive directorship or Chairmanship of a quoted technology company (or an executive directorship of such where the person has or wants a non-exec rôle as well).
* There is no charge to join ITNEA, or to attend the events, thanks to the support of their sponsors.
* They typically hold 3 dinners and 3 lunches a year, with 50-60 members attending each time.
* Member communication is done by email, for speed and the convenience of all concerned!
The objectives of the Association are to:
* Act as a networking forum for non-executive directors and chairmen, giving them the opportunity to meet and discuss the particular issues faced in these roles with others in similar positions.
* Draw to members' attention important lobbying opportunities, where issues that will effect them or their companies are under review.
* Provide members with information on non executive director and chairman appointments through an advertising service open to companies and their advisors and agents - NED recruitment, advertising and search.
