SUMMARY:A general counsel’s view - supporting business and hedging risks 
 in uncertain times
DESCRIPTION:The role of general counsel and in-house lawyers has been rap
 idly evolving in the last years – and continues to do so. The Financial 
 Times described this evolution as “in-house lawyers moving out of the sh
 adow”. Indeed\, the days where they “only” had to advise their companies
  on all kind of legal matters at local and global level have gone. Today
 \, general counsels are called to manage a widening range of risk\, comp
 liance\, governance\, regulatory and operational issues and\, at the sam
 e time\, to support and promote their company’s business. Business\, too
 \, is becoming more complex\, with the growing need to factor-in environ
 mental\, social and governance (ESG) aspects and commitments\, and to de
 al with the multiple challenges of the current global situation.\n\nA pa
 nel of general counsel and in-house lawyers will discuss what this means
  for their day-to-day life\, how they cope with their tasks and how thes
 e developments are affecting the way they work with external lawyers.\n
