Paris was all about law last week! Our WALLESS team was right there at the heart of it, participating in the International Bar Association (IBA Paris 2023) conference.
It was a fantastic opportunity to meet old friends, make new connections, and participate in critical legal discussions. Dovilė Burgienė, Kristine Gaigule-Šaveja, Rolan Jankelevitsh, Alina Makovska, Dr Aistė Medelienė, Hannes Vallikivi, and Laura Ziferman were all there exploring the future of law.
Dovilė and Aistė contributed to “M&A Dealmaking in Uncertain Times” and “Taxation of start-ups from beginning to exit” panels sharing insights and exchanging hot topics with conference participants. It was our honor to support two IBA week events: Corporate and M&A Law Committee reception and dinner, and Women in International M&A brunch. Besides all this, we were happy to have a traditional cosy WALLESS lunch during such an intense week.
This year’s conference focused on crucial topics for 2023-2024, including AI, ESG issues, talent attraction and retention, the legal profession’s role in society, and advocating for the rule of law. Together, we’re shaping a brighter tomorrow!
