Congratulations to Coolidge Wall attorney Briana Breault on presenting at the American Bankruptcy Institute’s VALCON 2026 conference in New Orleans.

Briana was part of a distinguished panel discussing “Risks and Benefits of AI and Impact on Valuing Companies” on May 5, where she presented on “The Convergence of Artificial Intelligence and Insolvency: Navigating New Precedents.”

As artificial intelligence continues to reshape industries and business valuation, Briana’s presentation explored the emerging legal and financial issues that insolvency professionals must be prepared to address. Her thoughtful insights and deep understanding of both bankruptcy law and evolving technology underscore the forward-thinking leadership she brings to her practice.

We are proud to see Briana sharing her expertise on a national stage and helping lead important conversations about the future of law, finance and innovation.
