Against this backdrop, technological innovation remains a constant as large segments of the workforce go remote and individuals and businesses find ways to adapt to solve our collective challenges.
This combination of factors has affected the global disputes landscape and brought rise to a host of long-term ramifications as we move into the “next normal.”
Join Reed Smith litigators and keynote speakers, including analysts from the Eurasia Group, Judge Rabeea Collier from the 113th Civil District Court in Texas, Ali Malek QC (3 Verulam Building Chambers), and top infectious disease experts from UCLA Health, over the course of four days of virtual presentations. See all session topics listed per day below.
