Hogan Lovells Africa

On Thursday, September 19, the Steering Committee of the Africa Future Leaders Group at Hogan Lovells had the pleasure of hosting a cocktail reception in Paris, bringing together over 40 clients and colleagues from across our global network. Following a similar event held in London last year, we brought together leading Africa change-makers to discuss current trends on the continent, while exploring potential synergies and future collaboration. This event also allowed Hogan Lovells to reaffirm its position as the go-to firm for work in Africa, whether advising on M&A, project development, infrastructure financing, dispute resolution, or on a wide range of issues from cybersecurity to new regulations, we are clients firm of choice. #HLAfrica #AfricaFutureLeaders #Event #Paris­­
