SUMMARY:Rock Center 50 Minutes: Markets\, Power\, and a Shifting Global Order with Rebecca Patterson
DESCRIPTION:The assumptions that have shaped the global economy for decades are becoming less reliable. For companies\, investors\, and boards\, understanding what is changing and why is becoming increasingly important. \nIn this episode\, Rock Center Fellow Kimathi Marangu welcomes Rebecca Patterson\, Senior Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations and co-host of The Spillover\, for a conversation on three shifts worth watching closely: \n\nCanada: its efforts to reduce economic dependence on the United States and build a broader network of relationships.\nChina: its emphasis on resilience over efficiency as it navigates energy shocks on its imports and tariff shocks on its exports.\nThe United States: the evolving Treasury market\, including who is selling government bonds\, who is buying them\, the growing role of stablecoins\, and whether markets are beginning to guide the Fed rather than the other way around.\n\nEach of these shifts is still unfolding. That uncertainty is exactly what makes them worth watching now. \nAbout Rock Center 50 Minutes \nRock Center 50 Minutes is a recurring series from the Stanford Rock Center for Corporate Governance\, hosted by Kimathi Marangu. Each 50-minute conversation brings together leading voices in business\, technology\, markets\, and global affairs to examine timely developments through a corporate governance lens\, with a focus on what corporate directors and senior leaders should understand\, question\, and watch next.\n\nhttps://law.stanford.edu/event/rock-center-50-minutes-markets-power-and-a-shifting-global-order-with-rebecca-patterson/\n\nThis event is open to the public.\n\nRegister to Attend: https://stanford.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_phWvzAKLS-6NL7yZBwjEqw#/registration

SUMMARY:AI in the Boardroom: From Board Minutes to Billion-Dollar Deals
DESCRIPTION:Join the Rock Center for Corporate Governance for a webinar with Skadden partners Sonia Nijjar and Jenness Parker on AI in the boardroom\, from board minutes to billion-dollar deals\, for a discussion of how artificial intelligence is creating new opportunities for boards while also raising increasingly complex governance and legal questions\, including: \n• AI-drafted board minutes: The promise\, pitfalls\, and why using AI for board documentation is more complicated than it may seem. \n• Acquihire and “license-and-hire” transactions: What is driving these deals\, how they are structured\, and what boards need to know. \n• Delaware law developments: What recent Chancery Court decisions mean for board documentation\, books-and-records demands\, and litigation exposure. \n• Practical governance takeaways: AI oversight policies\, disclosure expectations\, and how boards can stay ahead without stifling innovation.\n\nhttps://law.stanford.edu/event/ai-in-the-boardroom-from-board-minutes-to-billion-dollar-deals/\n\nThis event is open to the public.\n\nRegister to Attend: https://stanford.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Os2Yxtd5SYqI84hRWDkFSg

SUMMARY:Rock Center 50 Minutes: Earning the Next Step\, with NBA Player Spencer Keith Jones\, hosted by Kimathi Marangu
DESCRIPTION:Join the Rock Center for Corporate Governance for the next installment of Rock Center 50 Minutes\, a webinar series hosted by Kimathi Marangu. Designed for corporate directors and senior executives\, the series brings a governance perspective to timely developments in business\, technology\, and leadership. \nIn this installment\, Kimathi sits down on the Stanford campus with Spencer Keith Jones\, Stanford ’23 (MS&E) and small forward for the Denver Nuggets\, whose path to a full-time NBA roster spot has required him to keep earning the next step. Two weeks ago\, Spencer secured the largest fully guaranteed offer sheet ever signed by an undrafted player converted by a two-way contract. \nThat progression has forced Jones to think constantly about what translates at the next level\, where his skills fit\, and what a team of elite performers needs from him. It has also given him a close view of the business decisions that shape an athlete’s career. As a player representative to the National Basketball Players Association\, Jones takes part in conversations about the economics and governance of the league. He also invests in early-stage companies\, bringing a business lens to a career still centered on competing at the highest level of basketball. \nEngineer. Rookie. Investor. Leader. Kimathi and Spencer will explore what it takes to earn and keep a place on a high-performing team\, how roles evolve as the stakes rise\, and what the business of professional sports can reveal about incentives\, governance\, and value inside competitive organizations.\n\nhttps://law.stanford.edu/event/rock-center-50-minutes-earning-the-next-step-with-nba-player-spencer-keith-jones-hosted-by-kimathi-marangu/\n\nThis event is open to the public.\n\nRegister to Attend: https://stanford.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_ysu0TJu4RreFvDrMyFi0kg#/registration

SUMMARY:Rock Center 50 Minutes: Geopolitics and Its Discontents with Michael Hanna\, hosted by Kimathi Marangu
DESCRIPTION:Join the Rock Center for Corporate Governance for the next installment of Rock Center 50 Minutes\, a webinar series hosted by Kimathi Marangu. Designed for corporate directors and senior executives\, the series brings a governance perspective to relevant developments in business\, technology\, and global affairs. \nIn this session\, Kimathi will welcome Michael Hanna\, U.S. Program Director of the International Crisis Group\, for a briefing on the geopolitical dynamics corporate leaders should be watching. Drawing on Crisis Group’s on-the-ground expertise\, their conversation will explore emerging risks in the Caribbean\, and the rising threat of a new choke point in the Red Sea region that will engulf a new set of middle powers\, with global implications. \nAs boards navigate an increasingly interconnected risk environment\, this timely discussion offers a closer look at geopolitical issues that often sit outside the most visible headlines\, why they matter for business\, and the questions they raise for directors. \nIf you weren’t able to join us for our last Rock Center 50 Minutes session\, The Infinity Machine with Sebastian Mallaby\, you can watch the conversation here. You can also find recordings from the series on the Rock Center 50 Minutes webinar series playlist.\n\nhttps://law.stanford.edu/event/rock-center-50-minutes-geopolitics-and-its-discontents-with-michael-hana-hosted-by-kimathi-marangu/\n\nThis event is open to the public.\n\nRegister to Attend: https://stanford.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_dd4dv_loRg69U4xvzjsUbg#/registration
