AI Governance is the New Mandate: Lead with Confidence

The AI Trust Certificate Program: Board & Executive Leadership Training

Transform AI Oversight from a Compliance Risk into a Strategic Advantage.

AI has become the defining governance challenge for boards and executive teams. With leading proxy advisors like BlackRock and Glass Lewis now requiring boards to demonstrate AI oversight and director training in proxy statements, the expectation for informed leadership has never been higher.

Global Data Innovation's AI Trust Certificate Program is your efficient, board-ready solution to close the governance gap and provide the verifiable proof institutional investors demand.

What We Solve for Your Board

Leading organizations are exposed to risk:
  • The Governance Gap: 95% of enterprise AI deployments reportedly fail and add zero in revenue (MIT), while AI-related incidents are costing enterprises an estimated $2.1 billion annually.
  • Shareholder Scrutiny: Glass Lewis has warned they may recommend voting against directors who fail to demonstrate adequate AI oversight when material incidents occur.
  • Proxy Season Readiness: You need the clear, documented evidence and expertise to answer critical questions from Glass Lewis and BlackRock on AI expertise, risk management, and oversight structure before you file your next proxy statement.
  • The Solution: Oversight Framework + Training Documentation
This program is specifically designed to address BlackRock's 2026 stewardship expectations and Glass Lewis' 2025 benchmark policy guidelines.
