Africa Network Meeting 2013
On 12 September 2013, Adams & Adams hosted its 2nd annual Africa Network Meeting, the biggest of its kind on the African continent, for its preferred partners from across Africa. The meeting brought together 61 top IP practitioners and administrators (including Registrars and Director-Generals) from various parts of the continent. The event continues to grow in stature and this year saw an increase in the number of attendees and a varied offering which included an informative presentation by Nicky Wiemar, Senior Economist, Nedbank Group, on economic progress in Africa and the consequent role played by IP practitioners in harnessing that development. The presentation highlighted the alignment of the Adams & Adams’ Africa strategy, to continue, through its network of partners across Africa, to be the law firm of choice in providing services of the highest level in an industry that is essential for economic growth.
