UKPGA launched at BP-hosted governance event

The UK Policy Governance Association (UKPGA) was officially 'launched' at a BP hosted breakfast event at BP HQ in central London on 6 October 2006. The event, attended by around 80 people, enjoyed presentations from key speakers Dr John Carver, creator of the Policy Governance model (www.carvergovernance.com) and Peter Butler, CEO of London-based 'Governance for Owners' (www.g4owners.com). David Jackson, BP Company Secretary, joined John and Peter for a panel session chaired by Stuart Emslie, CEO of the UKPGA.
