The future of European company law will be under the microscope at an upcoming conference for the Council of Bars and the law societies of Europe.

Entitled ‘The Modernisation of European Company Law’, this one-day event will be held in Brussels on 27 November at the Salle des Audiences Solennelles, Cour d’appel.

The seminar is being run with the help of both the French-speaking and the Dutch-speaking Bar of Brussels.

Achievements

The event also has the scientific support of the CCBE Company Law Committee and organisers are inviting those attending to examine recent legislative achievements and the future of European company law.

The focus will be on the following topics:

• Cross-border mergers, divisions and conversions,
• Digitisation of company law,
• Corporate governance and sustainability,
• Future EU policies,
• What has been achieved in legislating company law in Europe?
• What has been implemented already?
• What is working in practice, and what is not effective?
• What remains to be done?
