#UIABLF
 

Forum presented by the UIA Business Law Forum in partnership with the UIANextGen Committee, with the support of the Ilustre Colegio de Abogados de Valencia

15th UIA Annual Business Law Forum
Food Business: Legal Developments and Challenges in a Growing Industry in a Globalised World

The Food Business is a fast-growing industrial sector in an international environment and market participants - like entrepreneurs, farmers, food producers, family businesses, multinationals, investors and employees – are confronted with a variety of challenges. This year's Business Law Forum is dedicated to this industry and its legal developments, specific challenges and emerging (international) trends.

Speakers and panelists, lawyers in private practice and in-house counsel, will shed light on a broad variety of topics from different perspectives, share their experiences and set the ground for interactive discussions and exchange.

The Business Law Forum will again provide a platform to bring together business lawyers, in-house counsel and interested industry participants, promote professional exchange and establish and maintain contacts.

Legal practitioners from all around the world will share their experience about the Food Business at the UIA 15th Annual Business Law Forum and will discuss best practices in different jurisdictions – an event not to miss!

We look forward to seeing you in Valencia!
