Almost one year into the Trump administration, how are investment firms adjusting to the heightened scrutiny around DEI initiatives?
During this webinar, we discussed the intersection of legal, strategic, and reputational challenges that the much-debated concept of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) poses for investment firms. We learned about the status of litigation trends, state-led efforts, DEI covenants (including post-closing DEI requirements), consequences for businesses with government contracts or funding, and other considerations regarding DEI in venture capital deals.
