Legal Week is delighted to bring you the second annual Corporate Counsel Forum Africa. We are pleased to present a further opportunity to meet with peers and industry experts from across Africa to discuss the evolving role of in-house counsel in today's demanding business world. This year Legal Week has partnered with the Corporate Lawyers Association of South Africa (CLASA) which will help to strengthen this event as the leading in-house lawyer event in Sub-Saharan Africa.
As the rest of the world looks to Africa as a prosperous hunting ground for future growth, those who are already established in the market understand the challenges faced in reaping the financial rewards. In-house lawyers are increasingly playing a much more strategic role within the organisation and are key to mitigating these challenges and paving the path of opportunity.
With in-house legal teams across the continent being forced to take on new regulation, justify legal spend and increase productivity, what are the key practical steps to ensure results? How do you train your teams to better understand risk? How can in-house counsel support and help to deliver the overall business strategy?
At Legal Week's Corporate Counsel Forum Africa 2013 we provide the prime opportunity to network with your contemporaries, hear from thought leaders in the industry and polish your extra-legal skill set.
Firms that registered to attend in 2012 included:
3M, AFGRI, African Finance Corporation, Alexander Forbes Group & Technology, Altron, Aveng Africa, Avon Justine, Bowman Gilfillan, Brandhouse Beverages, Central Bank of Lesotho, Communications Regulatory Authority of Namibia, Cummins, DHL Express, Drill Masters Africa, Eskom Holdings SOC, Microsoft SA, Ministry of Justice of Rwanda, Moloko Investment Group, Omnia Group, Premier Soccer League, Remgro Group, Rio Tinto, Sappi, South African Federation Against Copyright Theft (SAFACT), Stellenbosch University, Swiss Re, The Unlimited, TMT Services & Supplies, TWP Projects, Winston & Strawn, Xstrata Coal.
