This year's Business & Securities Law Conference features a wide variety of panels covering new legal developments and practice trends for both private and public companies. Practitioners from around New England focus on the issues that business and securities lawyers encounter daily in counseling clients and structuring transactions. The half-day schedule makes it easy for you to get the cutting-edge information you need.

Get an update on the rapidly changing world of social media-hear the panelists address the implications for companies using or followed on social media and discuss key business and securities risks and benefits.

Next, learn about the latest developments in corporate governance. Within the framework of the ongoing debate about regulatory reform, the panelists focus on both "best practices" and new legislative initiatives.

Now that the IPO markets seem to be resurgent, hear about the latest trends in IPOs-and the possible impact on your practice.

The next two sessions focus on private companies, providing an analysis of trends and hot topics in private placements, followed by an in-depth discussion of broader trends impacting private companies in mergers and acquisitions, venture capital financings, and more.

The Conference concludes with the annual update on recent developments in Delaware law, which provides valuable information for attorneys who work for or with Delaware companies of all sizes.

The Conference is packed with a wealth of timely, practical, and interesting information you won't want to miss!
