COVID-19 Top 10: What GCs Need to Know About Coronavirus
 

Please join Morrison & Foerster for a webinar concerning the legal, strategic, and practical considerations crucial for general counsel, and other legal and compliance professionals, to consider in light of recent Coronavirus (COVID-19) developments. This webinar is only accessible to ACC San Diego members, and will provide a private forum for all of the questions you may have.

Moderated by:
Mark Zebrowski, a San Diego-based partner in the Morrison & Foerster litigation practice

Speakers:
David Newman, a partner in MoFo’s Global Risk + Crisis Management practice and head of the firm’s Coronavirus Task Force

Bethany Hills, a partner in the firm’s FDA Regulatory + Life Sciences Compliance practice

Janie Schulman, a partner in the firm’s Employment + Labor practice, will cover the top-of-mind issues of special importance, including labor and employment, information privacy, supply chain integrity, and more.

This presentation will be supplemented by core crisis management principles and informed by David’s experience helping to lead the White House’s response to the Ebola crisis in 2014. David, Bethany, and Janie will then dive into necessary strategies and considerations, ending with key takeaways and steps to employ moving forward.

Join us for this rewarding and family-friendly volunteer activity. We will partner with the not-for-profit Harvest Crops and pick fruit from orange, grapefruit, and tangelo trees at a private residence in Lemon Grove, with the fresh produce going to low-income San Diego residents. Harvest Crops provides ladders, buckets, harvest poles, and gloves, but if you have your own gardening gloves, please bring them. Volunteers are encouraged to wear lightweight, protective clothing (long sleeve shirts and jeans to avoid scratches) and close-toed shoes.

To respect the privacy of the home-owner, we will meet first at the Carl’s Jr. Parking Lot (in rear), 7162 Broadway, Lemon Grove, CA 91945 (behind McDonald’s), where we will have a light breakfast and brief orientation. Then, we will caravan over to the residence. Children of all ages are welcomed with parental supervision.

Effective January 1, 2020, the California Consumer Privacy Act imposed a new data privacy paradigm that reaches well beyond California.  Your company is almost certainly a “Business” or a “Service Provider” under the CCPA, and it may be both.  Join us to discuss particular contracting requirements imposed by CCPA, as well as best practices to consider for Businesses or Service Providers trying to minimize liability.
