Diplomacy 2.0: Owen Pell at TEDxBinghamtonUniversity

Owen Pell is a litigation partner at White & Case in New York City (www.whitecase.com). His areas of practice include complex commercial litigation, litigation involving foreign sovereigns, and litigation involving issues of international law. Mr. Pell has handled important cases in the area of corporate social responsibility, including cases relating to companies that did business in Europe during World War II, in South Africa during the former apartheid regime, and in America during the time of African slavery. In 2000, Mr. Pell participated in the negotiations between the United States and France to resolve Holocaust-related claims. More recently, he completed a case for the Republic of Peru that resulted in an agreement by Yale University to return to Peru artifacts from Machu Picchu. Mr. Pell has formulated a proposal for a title-clearing and dispute resolution body to address claims relating to works of art looted from individuals during the Holocaust. In 2003, the European Parliament overwhelmingly adopted a resolution supporting further study of this proposal. More recently, Mr. Pell was invited to be the only private lawyer on the US delegation to the June 2009 Prague Conference on Holocaust Era Assets, which culminated in the signing of the Terezin Declaration.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
