Board Portal Software for Modern Governance

A board portal is software for streamlining corporate governance processes. This must-have software lets boards operate entirely paperlessly, enhancing meeting effectiveness, collaboration, and decision-making in corporate governance. Our board portal, Nasdaq Boardvantage®, is designed for boards, committees, and executive leadership teams and features robust security features and a user-friendly experience. 

Board portals are built for boards of directors, committees, and executive leadership teams, and are trusted by corporate secretaries, administrators, IT, and information security professionals.

A board portal, like all board management software, is built to help you work more efficiently, productively, and strategically. A board portal helps improve management of meetings and materials, collaboration, decision-making, and corporate governance processes—all with added security.

Nasdaq Boardvantage was built with the corporate secretary in mind. Store everything you need in one secure place; easily manage corporate governance activities; plan meetings and build board books; easily access and manage meeting materials; reliably and effectively communicate updates; directly edit materials in their native formats; customize permission settings; and so much more.

Nasdaq Boardvantage recognizes that directors’ time is valuable, and that they need to be prepared for board meetings and ready to meaningfully contribute to conversations. Other systems that require multiple logins and hopping between platforms take up time that could be spent adding value to your business. Nasdaq Boardvantage provides one place to manage your tasks, easily access information, communicate reliably with fellow directors and management, and drive strategic action before, during, and after meetings—inside or outside of the boardroom.

The platform is designed to help organizations manage board meetings, share sensitive documents securely, and facilitate collaboration among board members and executives, independent of their listing status.
