Through today and tomorrow, UNLV Law is cohosting a Corporate Governance Summit with Greenberg Traurig.  Many thanks to Robert Jackson for giving our keynote talk over lunch today.  His talk covered the waterfront, touching on ESG, corporate governance, broker misconduct, and SPACs.

Featured panel discussions include:

  • All about the green: Developments of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues in the boardroom
  • Buy, sell, or hold: What’s a board to do in today’s M&A environment?
  • Diversity, inclusion, and refreshment: The hidden ingredients of successful boardroom governance 
  • Carrots and sticks: Unlocking the power of effective incentive structures in executive and board compensation
  • If you don’t know, now you know: A guide to a board’s role in managing (unexpected) risk in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic
  • Let’s talk!: Maximizing the shareholder relationship and the benefits of shareholder engagement

It’s been great to get together and talk about these issues in person.  Hopefully we’ll be in an even better position next year.
