Between Ras El Hekma and Alam El Roum on the North Coast, and Ras Shukeir along the Red Sea, investments pouring in from the GCC are considered a lifeline for Egypt’s economy. But beyond the headlines, an intricate relationship is forming between Egypt and its Gulf neighbors, especially the UAE and Saudi Arabia. And it got some of us wondering: is it all competition, or is there more to the story? Mashreq Group CEO Ahmed Abdelaal is a regional banking powerhouse, and he argues that each of these three countries has a unique offering; to him, it’s not a race of who’s bigger or better, but rather a collaboration. Abdelaal joins EnterpriseAM's Editor-in-Chief Patrick FitzPatrick to expand on an older conversation they had about that exact dynamic, or what he calls “the three elephants in the room.” They also talk about Egypt’s unique position vis-a-vis the South-South corridor, the importance of building sustainable frameworks of communication around foreign investment, and, of course, AI.

As cyber threats and geopolitical risks intensify, how can organizations be nimble and outsmart the next cyber attack? In this episode, seasoned data protection and cyber law expert Vinod Bange breaks down the threats that are still overlooked – including a new understanding of influence in social engineering – and the questions that leaders should ask themselves to ensure their teams are truly nimble and cyber ready.

What happens when a cabinet minister asks to be held publicly accountable? If you’re Hassan El Khatib, you go back on stage with EnterpriseAM at our flagship Egypt event. In 2024, a few months after his appointment, Minister of Investment and Foreign Trade Hassan El Khatib went on stage for an interview with Patrick, our editor-in-chief and co-founder. They discussed Egypt’s imbalanced export-to-GDP ratio, the need to expand the role of the private sector, and the minister’s own plan to bring down the average customs clearance time to 14 days. A year later almost to the day, the minister was back on stage to take stock of whether he delivered on his promises — and of what’s next as Egypt builds an export-led economy that’s friendly to foreign investment. Patrick and El Khatib also spoke about slashing red tape, boosting investor confidence, our growing relationship with China, and much more.

September saw Egypt's Planning Ministry unveil its National Narrative for Economic Development, a blueprint designed to anchor existing reforms and push the economy onto a faster growth track. On the second episode of Forum Playback, we’re bringing you a one-on-one conversation with a key person behind the narrative: Rania Al Mashat, Minister of Planning, Economic Development, and International Cooperation. Alongside Moustafa Bassiouny, Partner at The Enterprise Company, they dig into what this policy means for the country and the private sector (and our future employment). Al Mashat gives a quick rundown of structural reforms and accountability mechanisms that the state’s pushing forward, inviting the room to read the policy and “consider this a public dialogue.” She then answers a question that sets the stage for the entire forum: what’s in store for Egypt’s business community in 2026? To follow the conversation more closely, you can download Egypt’s National Economic Narrative through the ministry's website: https://moic.gov.eg/news/2150 Forum Playback is an eight-part series capturing the conversations we hosted as part of our annual EnterpriseAM Forum.

With India looking to be the world's third-largest economy by 2030, and with significant shifts occurring in its legal landscape and how it sees foreign investment, there are boundless opportunities not just for firms with an Australian presence but also for Australia-based practitioners.

The Advisory Board PodcastEpisode: Confidence, Culture & the Blushington WayGuest: Natasha Cornstein, CEO of Blushington HoldingsSponsored by: ClientTether – the smart way to grow your franchise.What do luxury beauty, Broadway, and power listening have in common? Natasha Cornstein, CEO of Blushington Holdings, joined us on this episode to share how a next-gen beauty brand is setting the gold standard—not just for glam, but for how businesses should listen, lead, and scale with soul. Beauty with a MissionNatasha might not be the founder, but she's the visionary CEO behind Blushington's bold expansion. With locations in NYC and upcoming launches in Boca Raton and Houston, Blushington isn't just serving makeup and blowouts—they're serving confidence in a glass of champagne (or sparkling water, if that's your vibe). The mantra? Confidence looks great on you.Customer Experience = Business StrategyFor Blushington, customer experience isn't fluff—it's strategy. Natasha broke down how every detail, from hair washes to tone of voice, is engineered to make guests feel heard, seen, and celebrated. And we're not just talking lipstick and lashes. We're talking about a culture of power listening—a practice that's been baked into the DNA of the brand since day one.What's “Power Listening” Anyway?It's not your average active listening. Power listening means really hearing—without interrupting, without ego, and with the intent to understand, not just respond. It's how Natasha leads her team, trains artists, and builds loyalty both in-store and across her franchise network. The results? Artists feel valued, customers feel heard, and services like wig styling (yes, wigs!) are born from team ideas that rise to the top.Diversity and Inclusion: Not Just a TaglineBlushington's commitment to inclusivity isn't performative—it's operational. From inventory to training, their team is equipped to serve all women: all skin tones, hair textures, and backgrounds. This isn't new for them—it's who they've been since 2011.Franchising with HeartTransitioning from a corporate model to franchising, Natasha is all about balance: structure meets creativity. With powerhouse partners like iFranchise and Baker McKenzie onboard, she's building a franchise culture that values the operator's insights as much as the playbook. Her franchisees? Often customers first. Loyal to the experience, now committed to scaling it.Bonus Round: Glam Meets BroadwayFun fact: Natasha's husband is co-producing a Broadway show, Take a Banana for the Road with Jeffrey Ross, opening this August. So if you find yourself in NYC, you might just catch some blush, a blowout, and a standing ovation all in one trip.Listen in to hear how beauty, business, and culture intersect—beautifully. And thank you again to ClientTether, for sponsoring today's episode and supporting smarter franchise growth through automation, lead nurturing, and CRM tools designed for brands that want to scale with impact.

What does it take to go from the mail room to the C-suite? And how does someone stay grounded in empathy while holding one of the highest positions in a global firm? In this episode of Leadership with Heart, William McKinley Washington II, Global CFO at Baker McKenzie, shares a journey that challenges assumptions about leadership, success, and what it means to rise. His story begins far from corner offices and executive meetings. William is open about being a high school and college dropout, a young father navigating food stamps and homelessness, and someone who never expected to one day lead a global finance team across 46 countries. This conversation is not about titles. It is about growth, ownership, and leadership that begins with a human connection. William speaks candidly about the moment he was told he was not ready for the role he wanted and how he turned that into a turning point. Rather than push back, he leaned in, brought in a coach, embraced the harsh feedback, and reshaped his leadership. The result was not just a promotion. It was a transformation. What stands out most is his commitment to authenticity. When he stepped into the CFO role, his priority was not strategy or performance metrics. It was a connection. At one of his earliest team meetings, a colleague shared a powerful personal story that brought the room to tears. That openness has become the foundation of how he leads. This episode will offer insight and inspiration if you are in the early stages of your career or facing a leadership crossroads. William's path is a reminder that doors may open unexpectedly, but what matters most is the courage to walk through them and bring others with you. How do you lead when no one is watching? And what would it take for you to show up more fully, not just as a professional, but as a person? Let me know what resonates with you.  

In this episode, Adil Hussain, a partner at Baker McKenzie, talks to IFN Editor Nessreen Tamano about the anticipated shifts in the industry in relation to AAOIFI's Standard 62, and the regulatory challenges and evolving market trends in the GCC.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Jody Glidden discuss:The evolution and growing impact of AI in professional servicesChallenges lawyers face in client relationship managementThe limitations and future of traditional CRMsStrategies for maintaining and expanding client relationships Key Takeaways:43% of clients leave law firms not because of service quality but due to poor communication and lack of follow-up.AI-powered tools like Postilize can monitor relationship gaps and generate personalized outreach suggestions for lawyers to approve and send.Keeping in touch with clients through relevant life or business events — like promotions, layoffs, or funding rounds — can significantly boost retention and trust.Many lawyers miss business opportunities by failing to engage multiple contacts ("multi-threading") within a client's organization, risking total loss when one contact departs. "If you can ever move [a relationship] to personal, I think then you've probably got them for life." —  Jody Glidden Got a challenge growing your law practice?

When goods, services and rights go back and forth within a company, how do you attribute profit or loss to one part of the company versus another? Former OECD head of tax treaties and transfer pricing Mary Bennett and EY's Mike McDonald join this episode of “GILTI Conscience” for a detailed discussion on the attribution of profits to permanent establishments. Skadden tax partners David Farhat and Nate Carden and associate Stefane Victor host the discussion, which explores, among other topics, critical differences between Articles 7 and 9 of the OECD Model Tax Convention and why these distinctions matter for multinational businesses.

Tax departments at multinational companies are scrambling to keep up with the Trump administration's tariff announcements as the updates pile in day to day and sudden shifts complicate transfer pricing calculations. Tariffs raise companies' costs, and those can't always be passed on to consumers—meaning businesses have to choose where to allocate the costs in their supply chains. While the importing entity pays the tariffs, the company can adjust the transfer price to pass that cost to other, related entities. That can present opportunities to reduce the impact of tariffs—but also may lead to risks of audits from tax and customs agencies. And with so much unknown, it's become hard for companies to find tax certainty, said Summer Austin, partner at Baker McKenzie. Austin and Baker McKenzie partner Jennifer Revis talked to Bloomberg Tax reporter Caleb Harshberger about what the tariffs mean for transfer pricing and how companies should respond.

In response, various governance frameworks have emerged across different jurisdictions to address the challenges posed by AI. Notably, the European Union's AI Act, which entered into force on 1 August 2024, stands out as the first legislation of its kind to introduce comprehensive rules governing the development and deployment of AI systems in the EU. However, understanding the complexities and nuances of this legislation remains a significant challenge.The Department of Innovation and Digitalisation in Law of the University of Vienna is therefore delighted to invite you to the first event in a series of three dedicated to exploring the implications, opportunities, and challenges presented by the AI Act. The event series is organised on the occasion of the launch of the books "EU Artificial Intelligence (AI) Act: A Commentary" and "AI Governance and Liability in Europe: A Primer" by Wolters Kluwer, edited by Ceyhun Necati Pehlivan, Nikolaus Forgó and Peggy Valcke. The first event of the series in Vienna will bring together leading experts, academics and policymakers in the field to discuss AI literacy measures and the governance structure under the AI Act. The next two events in Brussels and Madrid will be further dedicated to different aspects of the AI Act, providing a comprehensive overview of and encouraging diverse dialogue on the new regulatory framework for AI in the EU.Speakers: Link: https://id.univie.ac.at/news-und-events/detailansicht-news-und-events/news/untangling-the-eu-artificial-intelligence-act-ai-literacy-and-governance-1/

This Day in Legal History: West Law Reports PublishedOn October 21, 1876, the West Publishing Company, founded by John B. West, published its first legal reporter, The Syllabi. This marked the beginning of a transformation in how American legal professionals accessed and utilized case law. The Syllabi aimed to provide Minnesota lawyers with timely, accurate, and reliable legal information, distinguishing itself through its promise to be "prompt, interesting, full, and at all times thoroughly reliable." Over time, The Syllabi evolved into the Northwestern Reporter, which played a significant role in shaping the broader National Reporter System. West's innovation was groundbreaking because it standardized the reporting of judicial decisions across multiple jurisdictions, creating a centralized, accessible body of case law. The National Reporter System expanded to cover decisions from various courts in different regions, making it easier for lawyers to research case law beyond state boundaries. This system eventually became the foundation for modern legal research and was essential for the creation of tools like Westlaw, which revolutionized legal research with digital access in the 20th century. It is worth noting, the development of a centralized legal reporting system, while transformative, also raises important access to justice issues. West Publishing's dominance in legal reporting and the eventual emergence of paid research platforms like Westlaw created barriers for individuals and smaller firms with limited financial resources. The high cost of accessing comprehensive legal databases places those without the means at a significant disadvantage, potentially hindering their ability to conduct thorough legal research or build strong cases. This disparity underscores the ongoing challenge of ensuring equal access to legal resources, a critical factor in promoting fairness within the justice system.China-based drone manufacturer DJI has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Defense Department, challenging its inclusion on a list of companies allegedly linked to Beijing's military. DJI claims the designation is inaccurate and has caused substantial financial harm, including lost business deals and a tarnished reputation. The company, which controls over half of the U.S. commercial drone market, argues it is neither owned nor controlled by the Chinese military and seeks removal from the list. DJI alleges that the Pentagon did not engage with the company for over 16 months regarding the designation, leaving it no choice but to pursue legal action. The Pentagon has not commented on the suit. DJI is also facing increasing scrutiny in the U.S., with concerns raised about potential security risks from its drones. Earlier this week, U.S. Customs stopped some DJI imports under the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act, though DJI denies any involvement with forced labor. Meanwhile, the U.S. House has passed a bill to ban new DJI drones, pending Senate action.Drone maker DJI sues Pentagon over Chinese military listing | ReutersEli Lilly has filed lawsuits against three medical spas and online vendors—Pivotal Peptides, MangoRx, and Genesis Lifestyle Medicine—over selling unauthorized versions of its weight-loss drug, Zepbound, which contains tirzepatide. These lawsuits, filed in federal and state courts, accuse the companies of false advertising and promotion, including selling products without medical prescriptions and making unverified claims about the drug's safety and efficacy. Pivotal Peptides allegedly marketed tirzepatide for research but sold it directly to consumers, while MangoRx offered an unapproved oral version of the drug. Genesis was accused of selling compounded tirzepatide with vitamin B12, a combination that Lilly says is unsafe and untested. Lilly's lawsuits follow earlier legal actions against other companies for similar offenses. The drugmaker aims to protect consumers from potential health risks and seeks to stop the defendants from selling these products, as well as pursuing monetary damages.Lilly sues online vendors, medical spa over copycat weight-loss drugs | ReutersFour prominent labor lawyers from Baker McKenzie's New York employment practice—Paul Evans, Krissy Katzenstein, Blair Robinson, and Jeffrey Sturgeon—have moved to Paul Hastings, leaving Baker McKenzie short one-third of its employment lawyers. The team has represented Fox News in several high-profile employment disputes, including defending the network in cases involving former host Britt McHenry and a COVID-19 workplace exposure claim. The team has also worked with clients like CBS Broadcasting, Paramount Global, and Panda Express. Their move to Paul Hastings follows collaborations with the firm's employment lawyers, and they plan to continue growing Paul Hastings' client relationships. The transition strengthens Paul Hastings' East Coast employment practice, enhancing its capacity in complex employment matters, including Title VII representation, pay equity, and class actions. Paul Hastings' leadership sees this as a significant boost, especially ahead of regulatory shifts tied to the 2024 presidential election.Fox News Employment Defense Team Moves Over to Paul HastingsNew Jersey Transit Corp. (NJ Transit) is facing a patent infringement lawsuit from Railware Inc., which claims NJ Transit is using its railworker-safety technology without permission. NJ Transit is seeking to dismiss the case, asserting sovereign immunity as an "arm of the State of New Jersey." The issue is complicated by the fact that NJ Transit operates in both New Jersey and New York. While the Third Circuit, which covers New Jersey, has previously ruled that NJ Transit qualifies for immunity, the Second Circuit, which covers New York, uses a stricter test to determine state immunity. This case is significant because it could set a precedent for how sovereign immunity is applied across jurisdictions.Railware argues that NJ Transit's immunity claim is invalid, citing the agency's independent operation and non-state funding. The case also touches on broader legal debates about when state agencies can claim immunity in patent cases. NJ Transit is awaiting a key ruling from the New York Court of Appeals on whether it is immune from another lawsuit, which could influence this case. If conflicting rulings emerge from different courts, the matter may be escalated to the U.S. Supreme Court for resolution.NJ Transit Patent Immunity Claim Crosses Circuit-Court Divide This is a public episode.

Hosted by Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli, the episode blends humor and serious insights to tackle the evolving challenges faced by CISOs today.The Dodgeball Analogy: Setting the StageThe conversation starts on a light-hearted note with a playful dodgeball analogy, a clever metaphor used to illustrate the growing complexities in the cybersecurity landscape. This sets the tone for a deeper exploration of the pressures and responsibilities that modern CISOs face, bridging the gap between legacy technology and contemporary cybersecurity challenges.Legacy Technology vs. Modern CybersecurityDrawing from the dodgeball metaphor, Sean and Marco highlight the burden of legacy technology and its impact on current cybersecurity practices. Jess Nall shares her perspective on how past business operations influence today's cybersecurity strategies, emphasizing the need for CISOs to adapt and innovate continually.ITSP Magazine's Milestone and Black Hat ConnectionsThis episode also marks a celebratory milestone for ITSP Magazine. Sean and Marco reflect on their journey from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, the birthplace of ITSP Magazine, and how their experiences have shaped the publication's mission and growth. As they gear up for Black Hat 2024, they express their excitement about reconnecting with the cybersecurity community and exploring new opportunities for collaboration.Introducing Jess Nall: Expertise and ExperienceJess Nall, a seasoned expert in federal investigations, brings invaluable insights to the discussion. She underscores the severe implications of government scrutiny on CISOs, drawing from high-profile cases like SEC v. SolarWinds and Tim Brown. Jess provides practical advice for CISOs to avoid regulatory pitfalls and highlights the importance of staying vigilant and proactive in their roles.The Internet's Troubled History and Its ImpactMarco steers the conversation towards the Internet's troubled history and its initial lack of security foresight. Jess reflects on how these historical challenges have shaped modern cybersecurity practices, emphasizing the difficulties of keeping up with evolving threats and expanding attack surfaces. She also discusses the controversial strategy of targeting CISOs to influence corporate cybersecurity measures, a practice she staunchly opposes.The Perfect Storm: AI and CybersecurityThe discussion turns to the increasing complexity of cybersecurity in the age of AI. Sean and Jess delve into the pressures CISOs face as they balance the incorporation of AI technologies with maintaining robust cybersecurity measures. Jess describes this scenario as a “perfect storm,” making the role of a CISO more challenging than ever.Regulation and Legislation: A Critical ExaminationMarco raises critical concerns about the reactive nature of current cybersecurity legislation and regulation. Jess discusses how federal agencies often target individuals closest to a cybersecurity breach and outlines the topics she will cover in her upcoming Black Hat presentation. She aims to educate CISOs on preventive measures and strategic responses to navigate these challenges effectively.Looking Ahead: Black Hat 2024As the episode concludes, Sean emphasizes the importance of awareness and proactive measures among CISOs. Marco encourages listeners to attend Jess Nall's presentation at Black Hat 2024 on August 7th at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. This critical discussion promises to equip CISOs and their teams with the knowledge and tools to navigate their increasingly scrutinized roles.Stay Tuned with ITSP MagazineSean and Marco remind their audience that this episode is just the beginning of a series of insightful conversations leading up to Black Hat 2024.

The unthinkable has happened: Donald Trump has found himself in a legal storm that no amount of hush money can silence. In an age where cynicism is more abundant than hope, this verdict feels like a much-needed, surprising relief. As you and all the world know by now, Trump has been found guilty in the election interference case, a landmark decision brought by the ever-persistent Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who has sued Trump around 100 times in his long career of public service. Trump now faces 136 years in prison, four years for each of the 34 felony counts, and will be sentenced on July 11 by a steely Judge Juan Merchan, who has endured death threats and other harassment against him and his family.    It's okay to celebrate and to also mourn all that's been taken from us, including countless lives, by Trump and his family stealing the 2016 election, backed by their goon squad and the Kremlin in a transnational conspiracy.     This week's bonus show, available to all in a Gaslit Nation block party, looks at the Wall Street machine that Bragg had to overcome for this historic moment, the mass destruction of Cy Vance, Jr.'s dark legacy of corruption, and how grassroots power once again, led by progressives and nonwhite people, forced justice in the face of institutional failure and complicity. Thank you to everyone who stays in this fight. It's because of you we stand a chance to overcome Trump and his MAGA cult in November, and do the urgent work ahead to transform our democracy, in order to Trump-proof it for many generations to come.    Investigative Journalist Craig Unger Live-Taping - June 25th 12pm ET:  June 25th is George Orwell's birthday!

To help us cope with the mainstream media, especially the New York Times, continuing to normalize Trump and his MAGA cult, we're producing a live taping with cult expert Dr. Janja Lalich. Bring your questions about how to navitage this perilous time of rampant disinformation and manipulation, learn the signs of cult grooming, and how to help loved ones who have fallen victim. This will be Dr. Lalich's second time on the show. You can listen to the interview with her from April 2022 here.    In the Shadow of Stalin Book Launch - September  Gaslit Nation will host a live taping at a book launch in New York City for In the Shadow of Stalin, the graphic novel adaptation of Mr. Jones. It includes scenes that didn't make it into the final cut of the film, or it would have been three hours long! The evening will include a special meet-up just for Patreon supporters. We look forward to sharing more details as we get closer. If you want a book event/live taping of Gaslit Nation in your town or city, let us know!    Indivisible x Gaslit Nation Phonebank Party! - June 20th 8pm ET Open to all, Gaslit Nation and Indivisible are kicking things off early this year, really early!
