GML's Global Mobility Summit - New York

Mayer Brown was proud to be a gold sponsor of the inaugural Global Mobility Summit - New York, which took place on 15 October 2026.

The event brought together senior in-house counsel, global mobility managers, HR experts and private practice lawyers to explore the latest trends and developments in employment, immigration, social security, and tax laws that affect the movement of workers across borders.

Mayer Brown partner Grace Shie joined the panel "When things go wrong: Protecting mobile talent in a high-risk world" as a moderator. This panel explored how employers can strengthen their duty of care obligations and build effective risk mitigation strategies amid geopolitical tensions and civil unrest to immigration enforcement, crime, and regional conflicts. The discussion examined the emerging risks affecting internationally mobile workforces, how organisations can prepare for high-risk scenarios, respond effectively when incidents occur, and protect both their people and their business.
