13th annual awards announces winners

On June 28th 2023, we were thrilled to host the Women in Business Law Awards gala celebration at the Waldorf Hilton with guests joining us from across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

The gala ceremony saw the culmination of months of research into the leading women attorneys and law firm initiatives, having drawn upon firm submissions and client feedback from throughout the region. These awards aim to recognise complex and innovative firm initiatives that promote women in law and the leading women practitioners from over 30 practice area specialisms. The Women in Business Law Awards teams would like to express their deepest gratitude to every firm, lawyer, and company that participated in the research for this year’s awards.

A big congratulations to all the winners and the shortlisted nominees!
