Greenwald Lecture
The John D. Greenwald Lecture, made possible by a generous gift by the law firm Cassidy Levy Kent, commemorates the life of John D. Greenwald, former Deputy General Counsel at the Office of U.S. Trade Representative and the first Head of Import Administration at the U.S Department of Commerce. Each year, the International Trade Update is launched by the John D. Greenwald Lecture by inviting top trade practitioners for an annual lecture on international trade law
