The Forum has become a platform for discussing not only global trends but also specific actions required for Ukraine's integration into the European energy community 💡 Read more about the event on our website ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/djHjE-aJ GOLAW is actively working in the energy sector, supporting key investment projects in the renewable energy sector.

👥🤝🏻 Employee booking is an important step to protect your team and ensure business stability during mobilization. This procedure allows you to retain qualified specialists who play a key role in supporting business processes, and also allows such employees to travel abroad to resolve important issues. The loss of specialists at such a time can lead to business interruptions, additional costs, and even loss of market position. To avoid this, companies should take care of protecting their human resources in advance. 💼 GOLAW's team of lawyers helps companies to cope with all stages of booking — from the first consultation to the preparation of the necessary documents. With our support, you will be able to focus on your business, leaving the legal issues to us.

Щорічні збори European Business Association, присвячені 25-й річниці організації. За ці роки Європейська бізнес асоціація зарекомендувала себе як ефективного адвоката українського бізнесу. Як вчора сказав один високопосадовець, ЕВА - це та організація, яка може нарізати задачі міністрам😁 На заході оголосили нових членів правління, за яких голосували учасники Асоціації (не можу не зазначити, що прозорість та правильність голосування була перевірена Катерина Манойленко, яка входить до складу ревізійної комісії European Business Association). Ось декілька тез, які вчора були озвучені на панельних дискусіях, та моїх думок: 📌 Вперше почула, як Україну називають “Європейським Ізраїлем”. Сприймається двояко, з одного боку, як прогноз затяжної війни, а з іншого - як визнання нашої стійкості і готовності захищати свої інтереси. 📌 Вступ України до ЄС та НАТО розглядається як одна з передумов завершення війни. 📌 У фокусі уваги та обговорення пришвидшений вступ до ЄС, припинення вогню і нові гарантії безпеки. Але чітких прогнозів та часових рамок, коли щось із переліченого може статись, не може дати ніхто. 📌 Важливий меседж, який потрібно доносити до іноземних партнерів, – перемога України вигідна не лише Україні, а й їм також. 📌 Бізнес навчився функціонувати в умовах воєнного стану, без очікувань, що війна скоро закінчиться. Однак навіть в таких турбулентних умовах бізнес, як і раніше, очікує від держави чітких і передбачуваних правил гри. 📌 Залежність від зовнішньої допомоги зараз є критичною. Тобто багато загальних фраз і обережності в прогнозах. Але, як завжди, було приємно поспілкуватись офлайн з клієнтами та колегами, представниками бізнесу та держави. Тож фокусуємось на наших задачах та працюємо!

🙌🏻⚖️ GOLAW attorneys have successfully defended the interests of one of the largest banks in Germany in the Supreme Court, forming a judicial practice on bankruptcy of enterprises with assets on the temporarily occupied territories. The bank filed a petition to initiate bankruptcy proceedings against an enterprise that owned the largest titanium dioxide plant in Eastern Europe located in Crimea. The company not only failed to fulfill its obligations to creditors, but also sold its main asset to a russian business. The Supreme Court upheld GOLAW's position and decided to initiate proceedings. Moreover, in this case, the court clarified in which cases the ban on opening bankruptcy proceedings provided for by the Bankruptcy Code of Ukraine applies 📃 🔗 Read more about the case on our website: https://lnkd.in/dBKRi9hF
