Join Crowell & Moring and Ethical Advocate for a webinar focusing on key compliance and ethics considerations and best practices for mitigating risks. This free webinar will take place on Wednesday, March 29, at 1:00 Eastern. We will discuss what compliance and ethics challenges are “top of mind” for government contractors in 2017 – including new regulations, new requirements, and new enforcement priorities. In adding to identifying key risk areas, we will explore practical steps that companies take to mitigate risk. Some risk mitigation strategies focus on addressing specific requirements, whereas other measures target compliance and ethics issues at a programmatic/company culture level. We hope you can join us for this 60-minute webinar.

Speakers include Peter Eyre and Olivia Lynch from Crowell & Moring's Government Contracts Group and Jacob Blass from Ethical Advocate.
