Each year, RILA and the RLC host the Retail Law Conference, an essential event for retail general counsel and their corporate legal teams. With an ever-changing legal and retail landscape, corporate legal teams must know how to properly prepare and respond to new legal issues. Building on the success of the 2020 Retail Law conference, we’ve expanded this year’s conference to include both an education conference and a leadership summit.

The RLAW Education Conference, to be held virtually on October 26 – 28, equips your entire corporate legal team with the knowledge and updates needed to operate in the unique retail ecosystem. Elite outside counsel join with in-house lawyers to provide the educational content and practical perspective to answer your questions with strategies and leading practices that work. Explore the latest legal trends and up-and-coming issues. In addition, attendees have an unparalleled opportunity to network with hundreds of peers from other corporate legal teams facing similar challenges.

The RLAW Leadership Summit, to be held December 2 – 3 in Naples, FL, is an opportunity for collaboration on strategic issues unique to legal leaders of the top retail companies. The two-day program is included in your RLAW Education Conference legal team registration, and will allow each company the opportunity to send up to three individuals (GC and/or senior-level legal team), giving them the opportunity to collaborate with peers to examine the dual role of general counsel and their top deputies as both legal and executive leaders of their corporate companies. Small group roundtable discussions and larger cross-functional collaboration sessions will allow attendees to explore the challenges facing these contemporary retail leaders at the intersection of the retail business and the law.
