For the first time since the pandemic halted our in-person events, we were delighted to arrange a conference in Frankfurt for our WLN Next group.
The conference took place on Friday 7th and Saturday 8th October at the offices of our WLN member firm ebl factum rechtanwälte and brought together 11 fantastic associates from across our network.
Our speakers included in-house counsel Jisa George at CISCO, senior associate Kamila Segien at ebl miller rosenfalck, associate Ece Berinci , and Sebastiaan Meeuwens who presented on the WLN Focus Groups and their current projects. We also heard from previous Jorge Mañá Young Lawyers Award winners: Evelien Pijfers (2022 winner) and Natalia Rutkowska (2016 winner). It was great to hear about the positive impact of the placements; not only on the winners but also on the hosting firms.
WLN Next has been important within our network to promote applying for the Jorge Mañá Award and any other international seconds. It also aims to bring together young lawyers/associates to collaborate on projects including legal articles, social media content, etc…
On Friday evening the group walking through the city into the ‘new old town’ and to admire the sunset from the river Main. We then tried a delicious local German wine followed by dinner at Restaurant Margarete.
We would like to say a big ‘thank you’ to Susanna Grichtmaier and the team at ebl factum for their excellent organization and enthusiam to get the WLN Next group back up and running after a difficult few years!
Thanks also to our fabulous delegates and their firms who supported them in attending.
