This seminar-format symposium targets lawyers, bankers and investors interested in an in-depth analysis of bankruptcy and restructuring topics. Here is past feedback from participants: I wanted to thank you so much for a very stimulating and rigorous workshop. The sessions were so well-curated . . . and of great value to someone like myself who’s been in the industry but somewhat new and looking to get a wider perspective. It was a huge success! - Anisha Anand (Miller Buckfire) I thoroughly enjoyed the world-class professionals that gave their time and presented at the Workshop. The discussions and presentations made complex topics more digestible, and provided me with a roadmap to apply bankruptcy/distressed debt investing principles and concepts to real-world practice. I was also able to make many meaningful connections with financial advisors, investment bankers, hedge fund managers, and other attorneys in the distressed debt space—and I look forward to maintaining and developing those relationships. - Elizabeth C.
