Antigoni earned her undergraduate degree in Law and her LLM in Commercial Law from the University of Bristol.

"Antigoni is involved in important initiatives designed to advance governance practices in Cyprus," said David R. Koenig, President and Chief Executive Officer of the DCRO Institute. "I’m thrilled to count her as a graduate of our programs and look forward to the impact she has on global best practices," he continued.

The Certificate in Risk Governance^® is awarded to those who have completed The Board Members' Course on Risk^® - an intensive 17-course education program and evaluation. The curriculum is designed for current and aspiring board members who seek to advance the governance of risk-taking at their organizations and those who interact with boards. Taught by some of the world's leading figures in risk governance, the program features lessons by nearly 50 board members, c-level executives, and well-known authors from five continents. No course on risk for board members as robust as this - depth, practicality, and global expertise - exists anywhere else.

"What makes this program special is that, in addition to very interesting reading material, it is an opportunity to peek into the brains of notable people of diverse backgrounds on risk and take their advice on how to mitigate it and how to apply better risk governance!," said Antigoni.

The fundamental Duty of Care for directors around risk is to ensure that our organizations take risks well in pursuit of our goals and ambitions. This course furthers the fulfillment of that duty.
