NOVA School of Law's Abreu Chair in ESG Impact in the nominations for the FT Innovative Lawyers Awards Europe 2024
- 15 de July de 2024
Congratulations once again to NOVA School of Law and Abreu Advogados.
A year after being named the 16th most innovative law firm in Europe and the only Portuguese firm to win a Financial Times Innovative Lawyers Awards Europe, Abreu Advogados has been nominated again for these prestigious international awards, in two categories that recognise the innovative work carried out over the past year.
One of the nominations, in the ‘Innovation in Regulatory Solutions’ category, recognises the project developed in partnership with the Knowledge Institute and AICEP (Agência para o Investimento e Comércio Externo de Portugal), which focuses on training SME exporters on ESG issues.
The project, which is unique in Portugal and has the ambitious goal of reaching 2,000 companies, is scientifically coordinated by the coordinator of the NOVA Green Lab and Abreu Chair in ESG Impact, Professor Lucila de Almeida.
This recognition reinforces the continuous and fruitful collaboration between Abreu Advogados and NOVA School of Law, namely through the NOVA Green Lab Knowledge Centre, as part of a strategic partnership that NOVA School of Law has with the prestigious law firm, with which it has signed a protocol of collaboration in the field of sustainability.
It also shows that the objectives of both institutions are aligned, standing out as leaders in innovative regulatory solutions and sustainable practices.
The awards ceremony will take place on 12 September at the Natural History Museum in London. The event will include a reception attended by the most innovative law firms from across Europe, followed by the awards ceremony.
