Speeches of the session speakers were devoted to the most relevant issues in the current situation. These included the introduction of external business management, fair environmental liability, tax management and optimization in the sanctions period, limits and mechanisms of antitrust law application in a situation of economic disunity, criminal liability and criminal risks in the era of sanctions.
Andrey Kozlov, Managing Partner of the Law Office, spoke about the relocation of business, shareholders and management in the sanctions situation. He noted that relocation should not be understood solely as the exit of a company or business outside the country, but can also be considered as an opportunity to enter new markets. A new trend has emerged in the IT market - investing not in a company or a startup, but directly in the technology itself. This approach poses new interesting challenges for law firms working in this area.
