But they do not represent the first time in-house counsel have been called upon to respond to fundamental industry, business, legal, regulatory, and social changes. Join us for a casual and informative conversation discussing lessons learned and strategies for facing challenges and making tough calls. We are fortunate to have two important perspectives leading the conversation, Romy Diaz, a long-serving general counsel who has come close to seeing it all, and Cynthia Hill, a few years in the hot seat who knows a thing or two about how to dive in head first and thrive. No matter where you are in your career or in what industry you practice, there will be some great takeaways from this intimate program. <br \/>\n<strong>Speakers:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/lgbtqbar.org\/annual\/conference-speakers\/wesley-bizzell-3\/\">Wesley Bizzell<\/a>, Senior Assistant General Counsel and Managing Director of Political Law &amp; Ethics Programs, Altria Client Services; Past President, National LGBTQ+ Bar Association (Moderator)<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/lgbtqbar.org\/annual\/conference-speakers\/romulo-l-romy-diaz-jr\/\">Romulo L. \u201cRomy\u201d Diaz, Jr.<\/a>, Founder, Turtle on Post LLC<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/lgbtqbar.org\/annual\/conference-speakers\/cynthia-hill-happleby\/\">Cynthia Hill-Happleby<\/a>, Director, Corporate Counsel-Brand Protection, Starbucks Coffee Company<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-3\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">1:30pm-1:45pm<\/td><td class=\"column-2\"><strong>Break<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-4\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">1:45pm-2:45pm<\/td><td class=\"column-2\"><strong>The State of Crypto<\/strong><br \/>\nBlockchain is changing our world.
