Our Presenter
Melissa Owen
Melissa Owen’s legal and business acumen coupled with her genuine passion for Latin America have made her a go-to solution provider for companies with products or plants anywhere from Mexico to Argentina. Born and raised in Mexico, Ms. Owen is an international lawyer licensed in the U.S. who speaks Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French, and English. Her knowledge of the cultural, language, and legal dimensions in both Latin America and the U.S. have made her uniquely suited to guide her multinational clients through the complex and rapidly changing world of laws and regulations in that region. Variety has been the hallmark of her career – from acting regional counsel roles to trusted advisor to Fortune 500 companies and international trade associations on complex regulatory matters, from emerging chemical regulations, Circular Economy, Extended Producer Responsibility, product stewardship, and more. She is a recognized expert on regulations in Latin America and a frequent writer and speaker at international events about emerging topics from chemicals to sustainability.
