ITNEA          

Association for Non Executive Directors and Chairmen - NEDs & Independent Directors   

Welcome to ITNEA   

ITNEA is the UK association for Non-executive Directors and Independent Directors (NEDs / NXDs) and Chairmen of listed IT, Telecommunications and related Media and Technology companies - some times also referred to as Telecommunication, Media and Technology (TMT) or Information & Computing Technology (ICT) companies.  Fuller information on the Association and its objectives can be found at The Association .  The Associated was set up and run since then by individuals with their own chairman and independent director portfolios - qualified members.

ITNEA in brief  

*    ITNEA has over 500 members, holding over 1500 directorships between them. 

*    Member directorships range from private start-ups to FTSE 100 companies, in most sectors, both UK and international.

*    To qualify for membership, members must hold a non-executive directorship or Chairmanship of a quoted technology company (or a relevent executive directorship of such where the person has or is seeking a non-exec role) - see Critieria for more details.

 *    Today there is no charge to join ITNEA, or to attend the events, thanks to the support of our sponsors.

 *    We typically hold 2-3 dinner meetings a year and occasional lunches, with 50-70 members attending each time.

 *    Member communication is primarily by email, for speed and the convenience of all concerned.

*    We help organisations searching for Chairmen and Non Executive Directors (and similar roles) by putting them in touch with our members.

The objectives of the Association are:

*    Networking:  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 - in the context of technology businesses and listed companies.  Executive directors with relevant similar backgrounds and interests are also welcome to participate.  We draw to members' attention important lobbying opportunities subject to current focus.

 *    Non Executive Director and Chairman appointment opportunities:  Provide members with information on non executive director and chairman and related appointments through an advertising service open to companies and their advisors and agents.  For further information re director or chairman search see:- NED Recruitment and Chairman Recruitment - advertising and search across the membership

 

Search for NEDs and chairmen, ITNEA   The members meet several times per year, often with a guest speaker covering a topic of importance to members.

2012  The NED advertising service is used to seek non executive directors, chairman and related roles in listed and un listed companies as well as for other relevant opportunities that might match members profiles. Those seeking to recruit non executive chairmen and/or directors or for other roles with a similar candidate profile, the ITNEA provides a highly focused non executive director advertising and search / recruitment service for companies and their agents.  This helps you in searching for a non executive director or chairman (or for other roles relevant to our members' TMT and board experience) - NED search / NED advertising.  As most members have experience in the listed and unlisted sectors the service can be used for director roles in either sectors or for other roles seeking similarly qualified individuals. For members seeking further NED appointments the ITNEA provides information on companies who are seeking to recruit candidates from the membership.  Client comments include:  “The response was fantastic.  I was approached by 12 people, interviewed 3 and met/meeting 3 more.  The quality of the people we met was excellent.  In the end we decided to go with A for the prime role and to retain B as an adviser/non-exec.“
