Additionally, you will be able to discuss the trends in retail and the E-commerce space, as well as the role of innovation and risks in the market.

The evolving political environment, and its effect on big data, consumer data, Prop 65, and other issues involving the US Consumer Product Safety Commission will also be topics of discussion. In addition, the program offers ample opportunity to share specific questions with other attendees and members of our SFIA Legal Task Force (LTF), who have represented our industry for decades and served as its strongest defenders. These folks have the experience, dedication and expertise to protect your companies in these disruptive times.

isk in Sports: Emerging Liabilities, Assessment & R Management with AIG • SPEAKER: Matt Kelly, Senior Risk Consultant, AIG • SPEAKER: Richard Ramlow, Excess Casualty Practice Leader - Midwest Zone, AIG Insurance is a common risk management strategy that involves transferring risk to another party – often, the insurance company.

American International Group, Inc. (AIG) is a leading global insurance organization that helps customers in more than 100 countries and jurisdictions with all manners of risk transfer needs.

The Rise of the Virtual Trainer & Quantified Athlete • SPEAKER: Matt Tamasco, Partner Schnader Harrison Segal & Lewis LLP • SPEAKER: Kenie Ho, Partner, Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett & Dunner, LLP The intersection of high intensity exercise such as those with remote live-person and web-based social training solutions has transformed the way both professional and personal fitness consumers seek motivation and a way to break the monotony of staring at a wall during indoor training sessions.

These new technologies bring with them the potential for new avenues of liability in addition to new challenges against time-tested methods of warning against the hazards of high intensity activities. Have the desire to test your skills against cycling legend Jens Voigt? Just respond to his open invitation for a virtual trainer ride over the web. Fancy picking up a new routine by joining a group of dedicated spin enthusiasts?

Head to a gym or just jump on your WIFI enabled trainer at home and join a class with a live trainer barking at you to keep pushing harder. Today’s technology is rapidly advancing to the point where virtual group events are being arranged on a moment’s notice. We will discuss several concerns related to inherently high intensity forms of exercise and the impact that data sharing, virtual training and the expectation that consumers may have when it comes to joining activities lead by professionals who encourage participants to join in intense workouts without supervising the ability of each individual participant.
