Troutman Pepper Locke is proud to sponsor the 14th Annual Food & Beverage Exchange on October 6-7, 2026, in Chicago.

Troutman partners Patrick Byrnes and Dan McDonough will lead a roundtable discussion on “Legal Department Priorities: What’s on Your 2027 Roadmap?” on Tuesday, October 6 at 3:20 p.m.

With 2026 wrapping up, legal departments are beginning to look ahead and set their priorities for 2027. Where will teams be focusing their time and attention? What areas are gaining greater focus, and where will resources be prioritized or pulled back? During this candid, peer-driven roundtable, benchmark your plans against those of other in-house leaders and gain a clearer picture of how your priorities compare. Explore what others are investing in, what is moving up or down the legal department agenda, and whether your own 2027 roadmap may need to shift.
