International and trilingual legal professional Melika Amri is known as one of the brightest up-and-coming lawyers in North Africa, thanks to her consistently strong performance in various in-house positions.

Employed at the multinational ICT company Nokia since August 2015, Amri has had direct contribution to the introduction of LTE standards in various countries on the continent. Initially spending two years as a legal counsel covering Northern Africa, Amri quickly made a positive impression on her colleagues and was invited to assume an interim Southern Africa head of legal and compliance position. Following 10 months in this new role, Amri moved back to Tunisia, where she has since been employed as a head of legal and compliance of Nokia’s Northern Africa business.

Amri previously worked as a legal and compliance counsel at Baker Hughes in Tunisia and legal counsel at Lafarge in France.
