Speaking Engagement

Globalization: Passport to Business Abroad

Barbara D. Linney, a partner at Blank Rome LLP, participates in an informative panel at the 29th Annual Wharton Women in Business Conference on "Globalization:  Passport to Business Abroad."  During this session, Ms. Linney will share insights on the operational, legal, and cultural dimensions of globalization, as well as the potential positive impact of “globalizing” one's own career.

This conference will bring together leaders from various industries and backgrounds to engage in meaningful dialogue about the critical issues facing women inside and outside of the workplace, and to explore ways women can achieve personal success.

Ms. Linney’s practice focuses on international trade and transactions. She regularly advises clients on defense trade and security regulations, U.S. export controls, and international economic sanctions. Ms. Linney represents clients before various federal agencies, including the Department of State, Department of Commerce, and Office of Foreign Assets Control, with respect to compliance and licensing matters, as well as voluntary disclosures, and assists members of our white collar defense practice group with investigations involving alleged export violations.
