The 2020 Institute on Entertainment Law and Business focused on “Hollywood in Flux: Pivoting during the Pandemic” and was highlighted by a keynote from Ann Sarnoff, chair and CEO of WarnerMedia Studios and Networks Group. The October event was presented by USC Gould Continuing Legal Education and the Beverly Hills Bar Association.
