2026 Defined Contribution East
DC East 2026 — the defined contribution industry’s premier annual conference brought together the nation’s leading plan sponsors, consultants, asset managers, recordkeepers, and policymakers to examine current best practice and the future of retirement savings. Over two-and-a-half days, this signature event featured high-level panel discussions, senior-level peer-to-peer networking, and thought-provoking keynote presentations — all designed to provide a practical blueprint for today’s DC plan priorities and insights into what lies ahead.
Mayer Brown Partner Brantley Webb spoke on a panel at the conference titled "Dodging DC Legal Landmines". The panel mapped out the patterns driving today’s cases, the practical steps that help keep plans out of court, and offered a blunt look at how to lower legal risk in 2026.
