Tiziana Sucharitkul Speaks at IBA 2020

On November 19, 2020, Tiziana Sucharitkul, co-managing partner at Tilleke & Gibbins and director of the firm’s regional disputes resolution practice, will join a panel of managing partners from leading law firms around the world for a special roundtable seminar at the International Bar Association (IBA) Annual Conference. Originally due to be held in Miami, the 2020 conference has moved online this year under the theme “Virtually Together,” in light of the ongoing global health crisis.

Tiziana’s session will bring together managing partners from Argentina, Canada, Nigeria, Sweden, Thailand, and the United States, to discuss the impact that COVID-19 has had on law firm operations and management. Boasting an impressive diversity of perspectives from countries that have seeing dramatically different impacts from the pandemic, the session promises to be one of the highlights of the virtual conference, which runs from November 2 to November 27.

The IBA is an association of international legal practitioners, bar associations, and law societies, with over 80,000 members from 190 bar associations and law societies worldwide, and the annual IBA conference is one of the most important events of the legal practice calendar.
