Conference on Best Practices for Corporate Counsel
With increased cross-border transactions and inbound investment opportunities at every corner, in-house lawyers need to constantly ensure that they remain legally astute while commercially-minded, able to anticipate risk throughout the organization while growing the company's bottom-line. Doubled with forecasts of an imminent double-dip recession, the pressure is on for legal counsel to make the right tactical decisions that will enable the company to thrive in a highly competitive global playing field.
The two-day conference will help you gain actionable insights on strategic legal issues which have critical business implications like building a forward-looking law department, conducting a litigation fire drill and dealing with recent antitrust & competition issues in Asia.
This event is specially developed for CEOs, CFOs, Group General Counsel, Regional General Counsel, General Counsel, Assistant General Counsel, Directors of Legal, Heads of Legal, Chief Compliance Officer, Chief Regulatory Officer, Company Secretaries, Corporate Counsel & In-House Counsel from local and regional companies of all major industries.
