ACoS holds its 6th Annual Meet & International Summit 2022 on Global Business and International Laws
The Alliance for Corporate Counsel and Company Secretaries (ACoS) held its 6th Annual Meet & International Summit on 15th July, 2022 at Hotel Eros, New Delhi. The theme of the summit was Global Business and International Laws. Over 100 eminent General Counsels and Partners from leading law firms came together at this event to share insights relevant to both sides of the legal profession.
During the opening address, Parvesh Kheterpal, Founder, ACoS and Head Legal and Company Secretary, Feedback Infra said, “More emphasis should be given to the role of General Counsels in the country as they play a major role in value addition and giving strategic advice. The In-house Counsel profession should be regulated and get statutory recognition which will strengthen not only the legal profession as a whole but also the businesses which GCs advise.” Thanking all in-house counsels for their support, he added that he wants ACoS to be a collaborative community rather than an individual-led platform.
The inaugural session was joined by Raghu C.V., Group General Counsel, Samvardhana Motherson Group; Manish Lamba, General Counsel, DLF Cyber City Developers and Raka Roy, Partner, Galadari Advocates & Legal Consultants.
During the day there were deliberations on different subjects including ADR and Third-Party Funding; White Collar Crime Investigations; Crypto, Blockchain and Cyber Security Challenges; Six Years of IBC; ESG and New age GCs – Turning Barriers into Building Blocks. The discussions were in the form of technical sessions and panel discussions, with interactive Q&A rounds.
ACoS is expanding its reach this year with the launch of new chapters in four cities amongst which are Bengaluru and Mumbai. The Alliance is committed to all In-house counsels for exchanging views, sharing knowledge and helping young lawyers who are new in the profession. It always endeavours to discuss important developments in the field of law, legislations, regulations and judicial pronouncements.
