In a recent Agenda article, Gunster shareholder Bob Lamm was quoted on the risk of in-person board meetings as the coronavirus spreads across the globe. He discusses the considerations companies should make in regards to these scheduled meetings. Lamm says that if boards are able to hold a meeting via video, that is preferable to telephonic. He believes that with more companies switching to virtual meetings due to the outbreak, some companies may choose not to go back to in-person meetings if the virtual meeting is successful.
Lamm chairs the firm's Securities and Corporate Governance practice and is a long-term member of the Society for Corporate Governance. He has chaired its securities law committee and served on its corporate practices, finance, and national conference committees, as a member of its board of directors, and as chair of its national conference committee.
