What does the Corporate Group do?
The Corporate Group includes members from a diverse range of industries and regions who share their expertise and experience.

Examples of recent issues addressed include:

  • Building a fit-for-purpose in-house team
  • Establishing best practices within your organisation
  • Issue spotting and dealing with emerging trends

  • Leveraging technology to drive efficiency gains and reduce costs

All discussions are subject to anti-trust considerations.

The work of the Corporate Group helps to drive MARQUES policies and the agenda of the MARQUES Teams - and vice versa.

We warmly welcome input and feedback from corporate members on the Corporate Group’s priorities and activities.
