Legalcommunity Week 2025: Day 3

About Legalcommunity Week 2025
From June 9th to 12th, Milan hosts the 9th edition of Legalcommunity Week, the event dedicated to the Italian and international legal community. This year, more than 20 discussion opportunities take place at the Hotel Principe di Savoia in Piazza della Repubblica: conferences, roundtables, keynote speeches, and debates on the most pressing issues for the legal profession and the business world.
But Legalcommunity Week also means fun and networking opportunities: alongside the institutional events, there will be cocktails, sports moments, and a music contest featuring bands made up of lawyers and other members of the business community. And of course, the Legalcommunity Corporate Awards, the gala evening celebrating the year’s top business lawyers and law firms.
