Event Report
The In-House Lawyer, in partnership with DAC Beachcroft, welcomed several senior in-house counsel on Thursday 2 Februaryto our roundtable discussion entitled, ‘Emerging trends in ESG litigation’ which took place at the offices of DAC Beachcroft in London.
Litigation is increasing as ESG commitments and promises come under increasing scrutiny from activists, consumers and investors. It is a trajectory that will increase upwards, with the introduction of more ESG-related regulation and the proposed extension of the ‘failure to prevent’ remit.
In this roundtable, we asked some of the UK’s most prominent in-house lawyers to share their thoughts on trends in emerging legislation around ESG and examined how organisations could prepare for the further extension of ESG-related legislation.
The event was crowned with a networking session with drinks and canapés for all attendees. As always, IHL was thrilled to present this roundtable and we are grateful to our sponsors and hosts, DAC Beachcroft, for partnering with us to make this event a reality.
