LEWIS & CLARK LAW SCHOOL — Business law students learned about deal making from a General Counsel’s perspective in an Xperiential Workshop program entitled “Accelerating the Deal.”Intel’s Associate General Counsel Trevor Jones and Intel’s Executive in Residence Chris Croteau outlined an acquisition and licensing opportunity that was adapted from several actual corporate transactions. They familiarized students with concepts such as “value drivers”’ and “offer sheets” while involving them in group work aimed at shaping various deals, from cooperative ventures to an outright purchase. The students—with varied interests in business, entertainment & media, and cannabis law—were uniformly enthusiastic about participating in a workshop that closely simulated the work of practicing corporate counsel.
