The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) recently released its Annual Report for the calendar year of 2022.  In addition to the trend that CFIUS required mitigation measures in nearly one out of every four unique transactions for which a notice was filed, Singapore has emerged as the new lead investor country in notices.

This program will feature an interactive discussion of national security concerns facing companies today. With today’s ever-changing geopolitical climate, governments and regulators have given increased scrutiny to foreign investments that involve emerging and critical technologies, critical infrastructure, and personal data. Understanding the shared regulatory trends, as well as unique considerations of each regime, has become critical for those engaged in international trade, investment, and mergers and acquisitions. The speakers will discuss:

  • Key takeaways from CFIUS Annual Report
  • Continued focus on personal data, particularly security around foreign nations and threat actors
  • Case studies of recent transactions
  • “Reverse CFIUS” proposal on potential regulation for outbound investment out of the US and into international companies and resources

We are seeing a world in which the pace of change and disruption is causing the evolution of the role of the General Counsel and law departments. General Counsel are in a distinct position to anticipate change and guide their companies through the minefields of new technology, regulation, and social change from both a business and legal perspective. These challenges affect not only today’s companies but also a broad multitude of stakeholders and constituents. The Association of Corporate Counsel of Colorado (ACC) and NACD Colorado invite you to discover how the most proactive legal officers and departments are evolving beyond traditional practices, leading partnerships across the enterprise that identify and address expanded business risks and complex challenges arising in this new world.

In a combination of panel discussions and rotating breakout sessions, this fast-paced, extended program format will offer the opportunity for board members, ACC members, and NACD sponsors to engage in conversations on very topical governance issues facing boards from the headlines, emerging technologies, regulation and social issues. Panels and breakouts will include the following topics:

  • Why today’s General Counsel and law departments are evolving to the roles of strategist, oracle, operator and compass, and the impact and  benefits
  • Recognizing, analyzing and responding to surprising minefields in fiduciary obligations to a wide group of stakeholders, e.g., conflicts in law governing interstate business law; your duty as a director to know – or not; examples from the headlines
  • The pressure points in the relationship between the board and the GC: who does the GC represent and when; in-house and external counsel in the boardroom; conflicts, use of confidential information, privilege; relations with former directors
  • Artificial Intelligence in the boardroom: challenges and questions you never thought to ask. AI’s impact past and present in the board room; why Generative AI is different; regulatory, privilege and other boardroom issues

Join us for a fast-moving, fun, and information packed evening.
