GSK Stockmann

As a European corporate law firm GSK Stockmann is strongly committed to diversity in order to meet client expectations, attract talented individuals and drive innovation. We believe that diversity is integrally intertwined with corporate citizenship as well as environmental, social and governance (ESG) aspects.

In terms of gender diversity, we enable flexible work solutions to promote female leadership. Our Luxembourg office stands for cultural diversity: Our legal practice and international client base benefit from the diverse backgrounds of our lawyers and our staff, enabling us to speak our clients’ language and relate to their cultural background.

As good corporate citizens in Luxembourg, we aim to support local activities. As corporate members of the Philharmonie Luxembourg, we have decided to address our corporate Christmas donation to the Fondation EME founded by the Philharmonie, connecting the vulnerable with music, which is more important than ever during these challenging times. We regularly offer local artists a platform to present contemporary Luxembourgish art in our premises; each exhibition is highlighted by a vernissage, which has become a regular event for many of our clients, friends and colleagues.

In relation to ESG considerations, we see a growing demand of investors, asset managers, corporates and institutions and hence an increasing number of “green” transactions. Taking up the green movement as an employer, we have banned plastic bottles and established the use of water dispensers, within both the office and the conference rooms. We have implemented printing processes according to the latest standards to avoid unnecessary waste. Moreover, our office follows the internal firm-wide travel recommendations, e.g. to avoid plane travel where possible and set up video conferences instead. In relation to our office, the materials used comply with modern environmental standards.
