  • focus on the key legal, tactical and practical implications in genuine cross-border human resources and employment transactions and disputes.

Our members include in-house HR Legal counsel, HR Directors, private practice lawyers, HR consultants, tax, benefits andimmigration advisors, crisis management experts and management consultants.
