Workshop: “A range of national and international legal perspectives”
Although many people associate law primarily with lawyers and courts, this workshop demonstrates that its influence is far broader, encompassing diverse national and international perspectives. In a context where regulation and innovation are interconnected, the event aims to create a space for open and reflective dialogue, addressing contemporary legal challenges, opportunities, and how varied perspectives can enrich the understanding and application of law in today’s society.
