Companies preparing for their annual meetings have plenty to keep in mind again this year. In-person meetings are returning, but virtual and hybrid meetings have become a permanent part of the landscape, creating new shareholder expectations and new challenges for companies. With the Big 3 asset managers all implementing some form of "pass-through voting" initiatives, companies also face increased challenges in turning out the vote and engaging with shareholders. Join our panelists as they provide practice pointers for the current season on these issues as well as meeting format & logistics, rules of conduct, and other matters companies will confront at their annual meetings.

• Lauri Fischer, Senior Deputy General Counsel, Grocery Outlet
• Edward Greene, Managing Director, Georgeson
• Carl Hagberg, Independent Inspector of Elections and Editor of The Shareholder Service Optimizer
• David Hamm, Vice President, Deputy General Counsel and Assistant Secretary, Summit Materials
