The UK’s Leading Event for Legal and Compliance Leaders
We are excited to announce the return of the Corporate Counsel & Compliance Exchange UK for 2024! After the success of our 13th UK edition back in April where we brought together leading GCs and COs for two days of networking, it’s now time to continue the conversation on all things legal & compliance.
This exclusive event offers the perfect opportunity to spend two days networking, benchmarking, and sharing ideas with fellow GCs, CLOs and CCOs from across the UK and Europe.
Now more than ever, legal and compliance teams must be adaptable to new challenges – from advancements in legal technology, heightened geopolitical tension and sanctions packages, to evolutions in workplace culture amidst intensifying economic turbulence. As in-house legal teams navigate these uncharted waters, the time is now to bring together likeminded executives to share their innovative strategies and solutions to some of their hardest shared challenges.
Expert speakers will take a practical and forward-thinking look into the areas of ESG auditing and reporting, sanctions and operational risk management, the future of UK (de)regulation, cybersecurity, and so much more. Attendees will explore these topics in a varied and interactive manner, with a strong emphasis on the legal and regulatory trends underlying these problem areas in the coming years. So, this April, join your peers in coming together to stay on the cutting edge of the newest developments in the world of legal counsel and compliance.
