This change in the presidency is in line with the firm’s “Exciting Revolution” that began two years ago. Managing Partner Mabel Klimt explains: “we are following the roadmap we set out then, with the same enthusiasm and facing up to new challenges: to maintain the growth in clients and services in a sustainable and responsible manner and to be the benchmark for clients and colleagues in legal advice on intangible assets of all kinds”.
The firm will continue to promote research in emerging areas, such as artificial intelligence, the metaverse and blockchain, and it will continue to launch innovative projects that will be announced in the coming months.
