The Europe, Middle East and Africa awards research cycle has now begun – don't miss out on this opportunity to get recognised

We are delighted to announce the launch of the Women in Business Law Awards EMEA 2022 research.

Please follow the link below to nominate leading women practitioners, rising stars, firm initiatives, and in-house counsel and teams.

All the award categories, criteria, key dates, and the awards methodology can be found on the Women in Business Law Awards website.

ENTER THE AWARDS

For any questions about the awards or the research processes, please contact the awards editor, John Harrison.

For any queries about business development and commercial opportunities related to the awards, please contact our producer Tanya Gujral.

Last year’s Women in Business Law Awards virtual ceremony, winners list, and shortlists are available to view for no fee at Winners 2021 and Shortlist 2021.

The essentials

All professional accomplishments to be taken into consideration (deals and cases) for the individual awards must have closed in 2021 to be included in the research. Any professional accomplishments not to have concluded by December 31 2021 will not be given consideration.

Individual awards are weighted equally regarding each practitioner’s professional accomplishments and their advocacy, influence, and thought leadership.

To be given consideration as a rising star, the individual practitioner should have no more than 15 years’ professional experience, be under 40 years old, and be acting at partner level. Ideal candidates would be either a recently raised partner, senior associate or of counsel.

All other nominees should be submitted for their practice area specialism.

Firm initiatives that started in previous years and are ongoing may be included for any of the firm award categories. If the initiative was not active in 2021, it will not be given consideration for the awards.

Good luck to all!
