With just 1 year for issuers to be in compliance with Dodd-Frank Section 1502, Global Brands are gathering at the Global Conflict Minerals Symposium to gain the skills and knowledge they need in order to meet their due diligence requirements.

The invitation-only Symposium will convene a diverse cross-section of speakers including U.S. State Department, Tata Consulting Services Group, Resource Global, Biogen Idec, Elm Consulting, University of California, Schulth Roth & Zabel European Union, U.S. Government Accountability Office, and more.

The symposium will provide participants with a forum to share their practical experience, insights, and vision for achieving conflict-free sourcing practices globally with the implementation of effective regulations.

Final speaker submissions are due by June 15, 2013.

If you would like to attend the Symposium, recommend a speaker (including yourself), or suggest a topic for discussion to our diverse cross-section of speakers including Government, Private Industry, Academia and Non-governmental organizations, please submit a [REQUEST AN INVITATION TO THE SYMPOSIUM OR RECOMMEND A SPEAKER](http://www.conflictmineralsconsortium.com/node/55)
