Following last year’s successful inaugural edition, this summit is set to make a highly anticipated return in 2024, promising an exciting program focused on the legal sector’s commitment to facilitating a crucial green transition. The summit features high-profile speakers, including legal experts, prominent figures in sustainability. Their insights and experiences will provide a broader perspective on the legal sector’s role in driving environmental responsibility.
Throughout the event, attendees will gain insights into the evolution of General Counsels (GCs) and their adaptive strategies in response to the burgeoning focus on sustainability policies. Given the regional context, attendees can also expect discussions tailored to the specific ESG risks and opportunities in Singapore and Southeast Asia. This awareness is crucial for in-house lawyers to advise their organisations effectively and ensure compliance with evolving environmental regulations.
This summit pledges not only distinguished speakers but also ample time for dynamic discussions and debates surrounding one of the most critical issues of our era. The event closes with a networking opportunity, allowing attendees to connect with peers, industry leaders, and sustainability experts, towards the exchange of ideas, best practices and potential collaborations in the realm of sustainable legal practices.
