IoD Isle of Man Announces Lloyds as Main Sponsor for 2026

IoD Isle of Man has announced that Lloyds International will continue as its main sponsor in 2026.

The sponsorship agreement covers IoD Isle of Man's extensive programme of networking and CPD opportunities, which are delivered for the benefit of IoD members and the wider business community on the Island as part of its ‘Connect’ and ‘Develop’ offer.

Thanks to the support of Lloyds International, IoD Isle of Man will soon be launching a new series of CPD events - The Better Directors Series. These events will mirror the successful initiative offered by IoD in the UK and promise to bring new perspectives to the Island, offering a welcome addition to IoD Isle of Man’s popular ‘Develop’ events.

Steve Billinghurst, Chair, IoD Isle of Man, said:

‘Our relationship with Lloyds International has been very positive and supportive and we welcome their decision to continue our sponsor relationship.  We were able to deliver a series of valuable events through 2025, many hosted at Lloyds’ premises in Douglas, including arranging guests from outside of the Island to speak to our members. In partnership with Lloyds, we are excited to deliver broad awareness and insight into current and upcoming issues to our members and the Island's business leaders.’

Nigel Cheesley, Country Head, Isle of Man at Lloyds, said:

‘It is our pleasure to continue as the main sponsor in 2026. Supporting the Institute of Directors reflects our commitment to fostering strong leadership and sustainable business practices across the Crown Dependencies.’
