Today, in its second modern governance announcement, Diligent released a
new offering aimed at equipping executives and board directors with
news, insights, and AI-generated analytics that enables them to stay
informed on market trends and the health of their organization through
personalized business intelligence. This new solution comes on the heels
of Diligent’s unveiling of modern governance, a new category designed to
provide leaders with the technology, insights, and processes required to
fuel good governance that organizations need to thrive and endure.

“The debut of modern governance has allowed for leaders to put a
framework in place to keep up with the unforgiving and relentless pace
of today’s businesses,” said Brian Stafford, CEO of Diligent. “To truly
succeed, executives and directors not only need the right technology but
also the most up-to-date insights and news at their fingertips. Diligent
is helping board members and executives be more engaged partners and
share the same intelligence on the industry and evolving governance
practices so that they can better act in tandem to help their companies
not only survive but thrive in today’s incredibly demanding business
environment.”

Diligent Governance Intel, powered by the acquisition of Manzama,
empowers a CEO, general counsel, or board director with daily
information to analyze and compare the market conversation about a
business or industry, monitoring such topics as industry regulations or
the activist environment. The platform serves information from over
80,000 business news sources and is customizable to the specific needs
of the user. A lighter version of Governance Intel, Diligent News
Analytics, is now available for free on the Diligent platform enabling
board members seamless access to up to-the-minute news and analytics on
their company and industry, helping them bring the right insights to the
board meeting.

As the innovator of modern governance, Diligent recognizes today’s
leaders need the right insights, including thought leadership and
stories from the front lines, to complement the technology it provides
to the world’s largest organizations. To that end, Diligent is also is
launching a podcast titled The

experiences and ideas behind successful corporate board governance
through interviews with leaders and governance researchers.

complexity of today’s governance responsibilities than Diligent, and
we’re thrilled to take the next step forward and share this reliable
