Protecting and Restoring Global Reputation in the Internet Age
- Learn how to combat rumours to protect and restore reputation through effective use of investigation, negotiation, and litigation

Seminar and networking event

With more than 1.46 billion people worldwide using the Internet, businesses and individuals, particularly in emerging markets, may find themselves the victims of leaked private and confidential information, or false or inaccurate stories and allegations that are credited and repeated because they are “published.”

Whether they are a competitor’s planned attacks, disgruntled employees, citizen journalists or the work of careless media or bloggers, the damage from a reputational attack can spread like a virus - often with grave commercial and personal consequences.

Schillings, Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP and K2 Global Consulting invite you to join our panel of experts to discuss these issues.
 

Due to the international nature of the seminar, we will be holding three separate events in New York, Washington, DC and London.

Leading the field today and beyond
The annual forum for protecting reputation in sport

The sports industry is a sophisticated and competitive market place. Correctly balancing the needs of the corporate sponsor, with those of the sporting team and the players and personalities involved, can provide a winning formula. However, in reality the balance is hard to achieve - and even harder to maintain - in an increasingly celebrity obsessed society.

This half-day conference brings together leading experts who will debate issues facing sports brands and sporting professionals from a public relations, media and legal perspective.

Panelists include
  • Tim Luckett, Managing Director, Hill and Knowlton
  • Phil Hall, CEO, PHA Media
  • John Kelly, Partner, Schillings
  • Matthew Himsworth, Associate, Schillings

We are also pleased to announce that Kenny Logan, former Scotland and London Wasps rugby star, will join the panel to give a keynote speech.
