LAS VEGAS, Aug. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Honorable Collins J. Seitz, Jr., Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Delaware, will be the keynote speaker at the sixth annual Summit for Corporate Governance Sept. 12. Global law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP and the William S. Boyd School of Law at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) are co-hosts for the event.

This year's summit will feature engaging panels examining hot topics facing boards of directors and senior corporate leadership, such as questions of domicile choice, strategy alignment in the face of evolving federal and state political landscapes, internal board disputes, and unique private and portfolio company challenges.

"We are honored to have Chief Justice Seitz as our keynote speaker in an era when public, private, and emerging growth companies are facing real questions about where to domicile their corporations based on a host of factors," Greenberg Traurig's Las Vegas office Co-Managing Shareholder Michael J. Bonner said. "Boards of directors are facing complex questions in these challenging times, and we hope our summit can help bring clarity to some issues."

Chief Justice Seitz's address will focus on corporate governance in turbulent times. He has served as a Delaware Supreme Court Justice since 2015, and as Chief Justice for almost six years. Prior to his appointment, Seitz founded a corporate advisory and litigation firm in Wilmington, Del., representing clients in corporate and trust disputes in the Delaware Court of Chancery and the Supreme Court. He is a member of the American Law Institute and judicial advisor to the Restatement of Corporate Governance.
