Event Details
Please save the date, Wednesday, May 14, for Steptoe's Sixth Annual Regulatory Symposium. At this hybrid event, we will gather current and former thought leaders, and industry stakeholders to discuss the most pressing issues facing companies in regulated industries. Confirmed speakers already include Patrick Fuchs, Chairman, Surface Transportation Board; David Rosner, Commissioner, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission; and Harold Furchtgott-Roth, former Commissioner, Federal Communications Commission.
The subject of our Symposium is:
Expect the Unexpected: What Has Changed and What Has Remained the Same in the New Administration's Approach to Industry Regulation, Competition, Freedom of Speech, and Taxes? How to Maximize Opportunity and Minimize Risk.
The firm's regulatory symposium program started in 2019 under the first Trump administration and provided a new platform for regulators for some of America's most strategic industries to be able to engage in a constructive and positive environment with the companies they had responsibility for regulating.
To set the scene, this annual event brings together regulators and businesses to share policy goals, key developments, and emerging trends shaping their industries. This symposium also aims to serve as a platform for exchanging perspectives and exploring new opportunities as well as new challenges arising for regulated businesses.
The opening plenary will be followed by two concurrent breakout sessions on topics related to the overall theme. The program will also be followed by a cocktail reception.
Additional information and formal registration form, including finalized breakout session topics and a detailed agenda will follow soon.
