Red Flags and Red Wine

In a world fraught with business risk, it is critical to equip boards with the knowledge to recognize red flags when they arise and to handle them appropriately.

Join MoFo and Gallagher (formerly Woodruff Sawyer) for an interactive program where our presenters will guide attendees through a “ripped from the headlines” fact pattern designed to spark engaging discussion and practical analysis valuable to every board advisor.

Following the program, please join us for a networking reception featuring an exclusive wine-tasting experience led by Master Sommelier Chris Gaither. This is a unique opportunity to explore a curated selection of wines under Chris’s expert guidance while continuing the conversation with fellow attendees.

If you are interested in attending this event, please reach out to Deborah Argueta.
