California employers often wish they could waive a magic wand that makes compliance with California laws easy. Unfortunately, “abracadabra” won’t make your company’s legal challenges go away, but in this CLE, Hunton Andrews Kurth will offer up some tips for navigating California’s rigorous regulations.  Join us as we discuss recent developments in cybersecurity, employment, and environmental law.  Topics will include: (i) the recently enacted California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) potentially impacting companies’ digital platforms, (ii) the ever changing COVID-19-related challenges for employers, and (iii) the latest in Proposition 65 and environmental regulations for manufacturers and distributors. Just as California’s regulations may be haunting companies and appearing out of thin air, so too will our magician, David Harris, who will provide a virtual magical interlude during the program.

David is one of the nation’s most sought-after corporate magicians. For
almost two decades, he has entertained audiences for clients that include Fortune
100 and 500 companies. Come experience the magic live! He’ll keep you relaxed
and laughing all the way
