WEBINAR: What Trump Means for Business
Webinar | 05.24.17, 8:00 AM EDT - 9:30 AM EDT
Part of Trump: The First Year
For corporations, a change in administration usually means both new opportunities and regulatory uncertainty. This same tension presents itself under the Trump administration, but seemingly to a greater degree — with the president’s personal emphasis on deal-making, the opportunities appear to be significant, but the prognosis for his aggressive de-regulatory agenda remains very difficult to predict. First-to-move companies have a significant opportunity to make a difference in the regulatory arena, not just for this administration but for years to come.
Businesses shouldn’t wait. They should prepare and act.
Crowell & Moring’s team of lawyers and former government officials will explore the issues that President Trump identified for his administration and how a changing Washington could impact business, including:

- W. Scott Douglas, former finance director for U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell
Defending America – Borders, Homeland & National Security
- Paul Rosen, former chief of staff, U.S. Department of Homeland Security, and former Senate Judiciary Committee counsel to then-Senator Biden

The landscape of AI governance and regulation is shifting. Following the release of the White House’s “America’s AI Action Plan” in July 2025 and the President’s signing of related Executive Orders, the White House has emphasized (at least rhetorically) a preference for innovation, adoption, and deregulation. But that does not tell the entire story. The Administration remains committed to exercising a heavy hand in AI, including by banning the U.S. government’s procurement of so-called “woke AI,” intervening in the development of data centers and the export of the AI technology stack, imposing an export fee for certain semiconductors to China, and assuming a stake in a U.S. semiconductor company. State legislatures are also racing to implement their own regulations, particularly around AI’s use in critical areas, such as healthcare, labor and employment, and data privacy. The many sources of regulation raise the specter of a fragmented compliance environment for businesses. This webinar will delve into the Administration’s AI strategy, going beyond the headlines to analyze:
