Our Annual Conference was held at The Hotel Del Coronado in San Diego California, April 6-8, 2022.  A big thank you our sponsors who help made it possible. We had our largest turnout with a record 217 attendees.

The conference kicked off on Wednesday, April 6th, with a welcome reception at the hotel sponsored by Guidepost Solutions. Lifetime NAFUSA member Christopher Wray, Director of the FBI, made opening remarks. Everyone was very happy to see each other after almost 3 years.

The CLE started with introductions with an exciting attendance of new members.  Lifetime member Chuck Rosenberg gave his ethics presentation:  “The Korematsu Story: The Duty of Candor to the Court.”  Followed by an interesting Crypto panel moderated by Ken Wainstein.
