Elizabeth Villa Mesa

Legal affairs executive | ISAGEN

Could you share an example of a time when you came up with an innovation that improved how your legal team works and did not come at a large expense?

Today, innovation and agility are key in all industries. Recently, we have adjusted the company’s procurement process for goods and services. In this process, all members of my legal team contributed with ideas and our general counsel, Fernando Arbeláez Soto, contributed his strategic perspective.

Can you foresee any key developments to the way general counsel work over the next five years?

I can foresee the implementation of technological tools as a key to enhancing legal advice and improving the strategic work of corporate lawyers.

What is a cause, business-related or otherwise, you are passionate about, and why?

I am very motivated to be a part of the development of renewable energy projects, it is a passion of mine, and my current role allows me to contribute to sustainability from a legal perspective.
