In-House Community

On Tuesday, November 19, three lawyers from Tilleke & Gibbins will speak at In-House Congress Hanoi, a conference targeting in-house counsel, C-suite executives, and other business leaders from the public and private sector in Vietnam. The Hanoi event is the latest installation in a popular series organized by the In-House Community, a unit of Pacific Business Press, and will be the first-ever In-House Congress in Vietnam’s capital.

Tilleke & Gibbins, a co-sponsor of the event, will be presenting a labor-focused workshop titled “Hiring & Firing in Vietnam: Pitfalls to Avoid.” Thomas J. Treutler, partner and managing director of the firm’s Vietnam offices, partner Kien Trung Trinh, and attorney Chuyen Hong Huu Le will share tips and best practices for hiring and terminating staff in Vietnam, and conducting effective compliance training. Other workshops at the conference will address important issues such as Vietnam’s anti-money laundering rules, the evolution of the legal function in Vietnam, and project and acquisition finance.

The conference will be held at the Pullman Hanoi Hotel, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., and includes a networking lunch. Attendance is free for all qualified professionals, though space is limited. Please see the In-House Community website for more information and to register for the event.
