Let me welcome all of you, on behalf of the Society. I am Lucinda Low, the president of the Society, and we are delighted to be here at the Third Annual Detlev F. Vagts Roundtable on Transnational Law. We have a fascinating topic that our panel today is going to explore, but first I want to say a few words. We are so delighted that the Vagts family came to us after Detlev's death to carry on his work and thinking in the area of transnational law. He was a pioneer in so many ways, and did so much to develop the contours of the area of transnational law. We are very grateful to the family for their generous gift, which has enabled the Society to create this annual event.
This roundtable was convened at 11:00 a.m., Friday, April 6, 2018, with opening remarks by Lucinda Low, president of the American Society of International Law. After additional welcoming remarks by Karen Vagts, Paul Schwartz of the University of California introduced the participants: Kristina Irion of the University of Amsterdam Institute for Information Law; Hugh Stevenson of the Federal Trade Commission Office of International Affairs; Lisl Brunner of AT&T Services, Inc. Global Public Policy; and Kurt Wimmer of Covington & Burling LLP.
