Corporate Conversations - Force Majeure

The Office of Corporate Relations and the Research Park at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign hosted A Corporate Conversation on Force Majeure, delivered by College of Law Professor Rob Kar, an internationally recognized scholar of contract law, on Tuesday, April 21. As industry leaders are trying to decide if they will be able to perform their contractual obligations against the backdrop of government restrictions, quarantines, supply chain, and transportation disruptions, Professor Kar addressed frequently asked questions about force majeure clauses and discuss the pandemic’s impact on business and the ability to deliver goods or services.
