About the Program
As companies face heightened risks of supply chain volatility and threats, cybersecurity threats, evolving litigation exposure, and regulatory scrutiny, in-house counsel are being asked to anticipate risk earlier and allocate it more effectively. This session will focus on how today’s business risks can be proactively managed through both insurance assets as well as thoughtful drafting and negotiation of commercial agreements.
Panelists will examine how core contractual provisions such as limitations of liability, indemnification, force majeure, representations and warranties, data security commitments, and dispute resolution clauses can be structured to meaningfully reduce enterprise risk. Rather than treating insurance as a standalone function, the program will explore how commercial contract terms and insurance coverage should work together as complementary tools in a company’s broader risk management strategy.
John and Jason will be joined on the panel by Kellyn J. W. Muller, General Counsel at International Materials.
