The key speakers included Joseph Page and Nicolas Rouleau, both practicing lawyers hailing from Vancouver, Canada and Harsh Lata, lecturer in the Department of Commerce and Management in the college.

Joseph Page recommended some measures that managers can adopt to stay clear of liabilities. He said that putting in place an environmental management system that anticipates environmental problems and seeking insurance policies is one such way.

Roulaeu is currently teaching comparative constitutional law at the West Bengal National University of Juridical Sciences in India.
