More Scenes from #NASPP25
For today’s blog entry, I continue my reports from the 25th Annual NASPP Conference in Washington, DC. Here are a few scenes from day 2.
Nell Minow, corporate governance extraordinaire was our opening keynote speaker. Quote from Nell: “When I was a kid, a teacher asked me ‘Do you think you can make a living as a smart aleck?’ I didn’t understand that it was a rhetorical question.” Nell has a dual career as a movie critic and a critic of corporations with poor corporate governance. Her comments were both thought-provoking and entertaining.
There was a full house for the keynote; only 182 empty seats (we counted).
Will Thoms, Rule 10b5-1 superhero, is here to save your executives from the perils of insider trading! He was also available in the Ask the Experts booth to answer your questions about 10b5-1 plans.
Attendees stick around to chat after a session in the Presentation Arena.
Attendees consult the Conference app to find their next session.
You’ve got to spin it to win it! Attendees spin the wheel for a prize in the CompIntelligence booth.
