VPB studio legale associato to attend the IR Global Annual Conference in Lisbon: “Architects of the Future”
From 9 to 13 October, VPB studio legale associato will take part in the IR Global Annual Conference in Lisbon, entitled “Architects of the Future”. Our partner Alberto Predieri will represent the firm and arrive at the event with significant news.
Alberto Predieri Shortlisted for the Member of the Year Award for the Fourth Year Running
For the fourth consecutive year, Alberto Predieri has been shortlisted among the 15 candidates for the “Member of the Year Award”, the network’s most prestigious accolade. The award is not decided by an external jury, nor does it depend on the firm’s seniority, size or other factors: it is the members themselves who vote for colleagues with whom they have worked or whom they have met, either personally or professionally, taking into account the willingness shown, the commitment to carrying out joint projects, the work undertaken together, and the contribution to the growth of the network and its members.
For this reason, the nomination holds particular significance for VPB studio legale associato: it reflects collaborative relationships built over time with colleagues from many countries and a shared endeavour that, particularly over the last year, has been appreciated by those who took part.
International Legal Support Built on Relationships
IR Global is an international network of professional services that currently brings together over 1,500 members across 172 jurisdictions, organised into 64 practice areas and 23 working groups.
Participation in the professional networks of which VPB studio legale associato is a member is central to its identity and approach to the profession. The firm views these networks not as a showcase, but as relationships to be nurtured continuously and reciprocally, based on direct knowledge of colleagues, the exchange of experiences and a willingness to serve other members. This commitment requires time and perseverance but enables VPB studio legale associato to offer clients an international perspective without sacrificing a direct, personal relationship.
For clients, this translates into tangible benefits. When an Italian client needs assistance abroad, relying on trusted, reliable professionals makes all the difference; the same applies, conversely, to foreign clients looking to do business in Italy. Constant dialogue with colleagues from other jurisdictions also helps us identify early any potential issues that a contract, an M&A transaction, litigation, or arbitration might encounter under other legal systems.
The Lisbon conference is an opportunity to strengthen these relationships and forge new partnerships. This year’s chosen theme, “Architects of the Future”, aptly describes a growing part of our work: designing, together with our clients, structures and agreements capable of navigating change and seizing the opportunities it presents. This is the goal towards which we direct our work every day.
