ACC Europe's 18th Annual Conference 2011

 29-31 May | Berlin, Germany

At ACC Europe's 18th Annual Conference this past May entitled,  "How the in-house lawyer can drive the changing legal landscape", over 300 in-house counsel from 29 different countries gathered together to debate and discuss navigating the challenges and opportunities faced by corporate legal departments around the world.This year's conference covered ways to deliver key solutions to a myriad of obsticales – global mobility, financial, anti-corruption, data protection and privacy, privilege (to name a few) – that corporations face today. The multitude of sessions were informative and thought provoking, and also provided members an opportunity to reconnect with old friends and meet new ones.

We'd like to thank our sponsors, without which this event would not be possible.

We hope you join us for next year's conference 3-5 June in Amsterdam, the Netherlands where we will continue to prepare for these changes and challenges to come.
