The Lifecycle of a Contract

Lunch-and-Learn

presented by

Robinson Bradshaw

Wednesday, January 24, 2024

11:30 am - 1:30 pm

Corporate attorney Elizabeth Tedford and litigator Jonathan Krisko of Robinson Bradshaw will join forces with WakeMed’s Interim Chief Legal Officer Brian Lynde to review the lifecycle of a commercial contract, from drafting and negotiation considerations, through performance and potential later disputes. They will highlight key contractual provisions that can better protect you should a future dispute occur; identify the kinds of deal terms that are frequently ambiguous and give rise to disputes; and discuss how different dispute resolution mechanisms, which often are not the focus of contract negotiations, can impact the ultimate outcome of a commercial dispute.

Quick Overview: Changes to Non-Competes and Impact on Sports & Entertainment Employers

Interest Area: Commercial and Contracts, Sports and Entertainment, Employment and Labor
Region: United States

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
