Poker isn't just a game—it’s a powerful tool for building confidence, strategic thinking, and risk management. Much like in a boardroom, poker teaches you how to take calculated risks, stand your ground, bluff when necessary, and strategize your way to success. ♥️ ♣️♦️♠️ In partnership with POLITICO, we recently convened a community of Washington DC's women leaders in business policy, government relations, law, and communications for cocktails and a lesson from the coaches at Poker Power on how the skills poker can translate to the business world. Thank you to everyone who joined for an enjoyable, fun-filled evening, and our hosts at Brunswick DC & POLITICO.

Ambassador Robert Lighthizer, former U.S. Trade Representative and a chief architect of President Trump’s trade agenda, joined Brunswick Senior Advisor Christopher Padilla for a timely and wide-ranging discussion on the motivations behind the administration’s tariff strategy, its global ripple effects, and what it may signal for the next phase of U.S. trade policy. This event marked the fifth and final installment in our partnership series, which brought together top political voices including Chris LaCivita, Senior Advisor to President Trump’s 2024 campaign; Jen O’Malley Dillon, Chair of former Vice President Kamala Harris’ 2024 campaign; Former U.S. Senator Doug Jones; and Jonathan Swan, national political reporter at The New York Times.

The intersection of antitrust, national security, and geopolitics is becoming impossible to ignore—especially for companies navigating cross-border deals in today’s volatile environment.   Last week, the Competition practice had the pleasure of organizing our Brunswick Spring Meeting Lunch—now in its fourth year—bringing together clients and colleagues for a timely discussion on the shifting regulatory and political landscape across Washington, Brussels, London, and Beijing. This was held during the Annual Major Antitrust Spring Meeting of the American Bar Association.   Our panel of Brunswick experts unpacked two real-world scenarios in tech and defense to explore how businesses can anticipate and respond to growing regulatory and geopolitical scrutiny. We were delighted to be joined by our nonexecutive board member Deborah Majoras, who was a former Chair of the Federal Trade Commission.   Huge thanks to the 58 external guests who joined us and contributed to such a dynamic discussion!   #antitrust #geopolitics #nationalsecurity #dealmaking #regulatorystrategy #BrunswickGroup
