Welcome to the Business Law Section Hybrid Spring Meeting!
James C. Schulwolf
Dear Colleagues:
Welcome to the Business Law Section Spring Meeting!
Section meetings are the place for business law leaders from around the world to gain key insights and unique perspectives on the issues most important to business law professionals. We’re excited to welcome our in-person attendees in Seattle and our virtual attendees from around the world online. In-person attendees will have the opportunity to learn from our fantastic CLE programs, collaborate at committee and subcommittee events, and network at meeting’s special events. Virtual attendees will enjoy an immersive online platform that provides an experience where attendees can engage with the Section’s top-tier content and collaborate with their peers and colleagues—the same high-quality experience of any in-person Business Law Section meeting.
Whether you’re attending in-person or virtually, and whatever your career stage or practice area, this meeting has something for you. I encourage you to take advantage of everything the meeting has to offer.
Highlights of the meeting will include:
- Showcase programs designed to cover timely legal issues, including:
- The ESG Backlash: Politics and Shareholder Primacy
- The Collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank: What it Means for the Financial Ecosystem?
- Blockchain, Smart Contracts, Crypto and Web 3.0 For Business Lawyers—Understanding the Technology and Key Legal Issues
- Legal Ethics in the Emerald City: What the Rules of Professional Conduct Say about Brains, Heart, and Courage
- Over 50 CLE webinars with interactive Q&A opportunities designed to help you get the most out of your CLE. Don’t miss our Business Law Essentials CLE Specialty Topic Track—a curated selection of CLE programs that cover fundamental topics across business law practice areas.
- Committee and subcommittee meetings featuring substantive discussions on relevant trends in your practice area. Sessions are interactive and all attendees are welcome to join.
- In-person special events like the Diversity Networking Reception and the Welcome Reception are designed to allow attendees to network with judges, in-house counsel, academics, private practitioners, law students, and other business law professionals from around the world.
And the meeting doesn’t end here. All CLE programs will be recorded live and posted to the meeting website for review after the meeting ends.
I’m looking forward to three outstanding days of learning, networking, and collaborating. I hope to see you in-person here in Seattle or virtually during the meeting!
Sincerely,
James C. Schulwolf
Chair, Business Law Section
