A proud annual sponsor, Momentum Factor will once again be in attendance at the 2024 Direct Selling Association (DSA) Legal & Regulatory Seminar being held in Washington, D.C., from October 16-18.

And notably this year, Momentum Factor Founder & CEO Jonathan Gilliam will serve as moderator for a panel featuring TruthInAdvertising.org (TINA) Executive Director Bonnie Patten and Kelley Drye’s Ioana Gorecki on Thursday, October 17 from 1:00 pm – 1:45 pm Eastern.

Part of the DSA Engage Conference Series, the DSA Legal & Regulatory Seminar is the only event for direct selling executives that brings together regulators, policymakers and leading legal minds. With the past year seeing increased regulatory and legislative pressures that are only just beginning, this event will provide attendees with the latest updates and next steps in order for the industry to work together in order to respond and create a positive legal and regulatory environment.
