National Bar Association Mid-Year Conference 2023

by National Bar Association Commercial Law Section

The National Bar Association Commercial Law Section (NBA-CLS) hosts the annual Corporate Counsel Conference, a premier event designed to foster connections and provide professional development opportunities for corporate attorneys from law firms and companies worldwide. The 36th Annual Corporate Counsel Conference took place in February 2023 in Orlando, Florida.

The conference featured a range of sessions covering critical topics such as the impact of adopting new technologies on cloud-based contracts, current trends in healthcare and life sciences, and hot topics in mergers and acquisitions in the post-2020 world. Attendees had the opportunity to earn Continuing Legal Education (CLE) credits through these informative sessions.

In addition to educational panels, the event offered practical experiences including the celebrated General Counsel Roundtable, the Signature Panel & Luncheon, and the Law Firm Expo. Wellness sessions for both men and women, as well as networking events like Dine-Arounds, were also integral parts of the conference, providing attendees with opportunities to engage with peers and industry leaders.

The conference is ideal for corporate attorneys, in-house counsel, and legal professionals seeking to stay abreast of industry trends, expand their professional networks, and participate in discussions on diversity, equity, and inclusion within the legal profession.
