The Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) is the world's largest organization serving the professional and business interests of attorneys who practice in the legal departments of corporations, associations, nonprofits and other private-sector organizations around the globe.
Corporate law departments are heading into 2026 with rising expectations around GenAI, but limited time, uneven adoption, and unclear metrics make it difficult to define meaningful success. Drawing on findings from a comprehensive survey of 657 in-house legal professionals, this 1-hour session cuts through the noise to focus on what’s achievable without overloading already stretched teams.
Join us to explore how leading in-house departments are embedding GenAI into everyday legal work in ways attorneys will actually use, how to build the data and reporting foundations leadership needs to evaluate progress before full ROI is measurable, and how to align executive expectations around what defensible, scalable GenAI progress should look like.

In a fast shifting and disruptive enforcement landscape, laws affecting interactions with foreign companies and governments present unprecedented compliance risks and burdens for the unwary. The Foreign Agents Registration Act of 1938 (“FARA”) remains a sweeping, vague statute, for which the application even to U.S. companies can often be threatening and unclear, particularly in the face of the proliferation of similar legislation by other jurisdictions around the world. Similarly, companies attempting to comply with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (“FCPA”), which has historically been one of the areas of most aggressive corporate criminal enforcement, are now operating in an environment of unprecedented uncertainty. Recent DOJ guidance on the enforcement of both laws and a recent Presidential directive regarding review of FCPA enforcement have created significant ambiguities as to the fate of ongoing investigations and enforcement, potentially fundamentally altering the compliance and voluntary disclosure calculus - in some surprising ways. Learn how these laws work, and how recent developments will affect enforcement and compliance practices.
