The Retail Law Conference is designed for counsel at the forefront of a changing legal and economic landscape: shifting demographic and social changes impacting both customer preferences and employee expectations; geopolitical tensions that upend trade policy and threaten decades of meticulous supply chain and business planning; advancements in AI and other technologies that will redefine the retail experience; myriad federal regulations and splintered state laws lurking to dampen innovation and opportunity.
The environment facing retailers creates increasing demands on retail legal counsel to understand new opportunities and risks and provide dynamic counsel to the c-suite to accelerate the business. The Retail Law Conference is designed to help retail counsel meet this moment.
There is no event like this anywhere else. The Retail Law Conference is designed specifically to elevate retail counsel and prepare them for the challenges that lie ahead.
