Women, Influence & Power of Law (WIPL) 2018 | ALM Real Estate Media Group | 4 October 2018 | Renaissance Washington DC Hotel, 999 9th St NW, Washington, DC 20001, USA

The Annual Women, Influence & Power in Law Conference (WIPL) offers an opportunity for unprecedented exchange with women in-house and outside counsel. This unique event was created with the assistance of an unheralded advisory board comprised of high ranking women, General Counsel or direct reports to the GC, and were drawn from across the globe. These attorneys have the highest levels of expertise and experience leading legal departments and practice areas.

The Women, Influence & Power in Law Conference is not a forum for lawyers to discuss so-called “women’s issues.” It is a conference for women in-house and outside counsel to discuss leadership topics, bringing their individual experience and perspectives on issues of:

• Cybersecurity and Data Privacy
• Corporate Leadership
• Labor and Employment
• Global Risk Management
• Intellectual Property
• Litigation
• Business Strategy
• Executive Leadership Development

Who Should Attend The Women, Influence & Power in Law Conference:

• Chief Legal Officers
• General Counsel
• Corporate Counsel
• Associate General Counsel
• Corporate Compliance Officers
• Senior Counsel
