Commercial Law Update

Join Iain Larkins, Partner, and Sandra Martins, Managing Associate at Cripps LLP, for a focused review of the past six months’ legislative changes and regulatory action.

With a broad remit and competing demands, finding time to work through every legal development can be a challenge. This session brings the key changes together, exploring their implications for in-house legal teams and the businesses they support.

Come away with a clearer view of what deserves your attention, where you may need to take a closer look and what to raise with colleagues across the business.
