I'll be speaking twice this year at the next joint convention of the IBA and IFA in Washington DC, on May 8th and 9th, 2018.
1) "Franchising in the Civil Law countries in Europe"
 
This first will be co-hosting a roundtable on
 "#franchising in the Civil Law countries in #Europe".
It's a co-production of the IFA Legal Symposium and IFA/IBA Joint 
Conference, a new and not to be missed 3 hour International Franchising 
Basics Track intensive program in the afternoon on 
Tuesday May 8, 2018.
 It's intended to bridge the annual IFA Legal Symposium and annual 
IFA/IBA Joint Conference on International Franchising that immediately 
follows.
 
2) "Enforcing Judicial Decisions & Arbitrations" 
"Enforcing Judicial Decisions & Arbitrations" will be the 
other one, on Wednesday 9th, a workshop with the International 
Franchising Committee of the IBA.
Workshop topic: Having success in litigation or #arbitration is only 
half the battle in achieving your goals and securing a remedy. The other
 half is being able to successfully enforce your award or order, and/or 
being able to collect monies owing.
This workshop will consider those issues in the context of #international #franchising.
We'll be writing a #paper with some great colleagues. I'll let you know!
