Pepperdine Law Review to Host 2019 Symposium

Pepperdine School of Law, in partnership with the Regulatory Transparency Project, will host the annual Pepperdine Law Review Symposium at Caruso Auditorium in Malibu on Friday, March 1, from 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM.

The symposium will explore, from both the academic and practical perspectives, the possibility of public and private entities overcoming challenges while delivering the creativity and innovation the marketplace demands. Speakers will examine how government regulators and legislators can avoid stifling opportunity, function more efficiently, and enact and enforce sensible and effective regulatory schemes.

Don Rosenberg, senior vice president and general counsel at Qualcomm, will deliver the opening address.

Roger P. Alford, deputy assistant attorney general for international affairs in the Antitrust Division at the United States Department of Justice, will serve at this year’s keynote speaker.
