Founded with the vision of empowering legal professionals in Africa, Africa Legal has become a pivotal platform for knowledge sharing, networking and professional development. Our mission has always been to bridge gaps in legal expertise and provide a space where legal minds can converge, grow and transform the legal landscape in Africa.
One of the most anticipated events on our calendar is the Investing in African Mining Indaba. This prestigious gathering, a centrepiece for the mining industry, provides a unique opportunity for stakeholders to discuss, debate and collaborate on the myriad opportunities and challenges in the sector. Africa Legal is proud to once again be hosting the General Counsel (GC) Forum at the Indaba, underscoring our commitment to facilitating critical conversations and fostering partnerships that shape the industry’s future.
This year, we are thrilled to also be involved in a series of events in Kenya, with the UK Ministry and Justice GREAT Legal Services, designed to unite legal professionals across various sectors. These gatherings are more than just conferences; they are catalysts for innovation, collaboration and professional growth. By connecting lawyers, corporate counsel and legal academics, we aim to create a dynamic environment where ideas are exchanged, relationships are built, and the legal profession in Africa is strengthened.
Furthermore, we are excited to reveal new developments with our media site and Africa Legal Learn that will be unveiled in the second quarter of 2024. This innovative platform has been a cornerstone of our efforts to democratise legal education across the continent. In its latest iteration, Africa Legal Learn is set to expand in a unique way, making online legal learning more accessible and affordable. This expansion is not just about reaching more individuals; it’s also about deepening our impact and ensuring that everyone – from aspiring legal professionals to business leaders looking to understand the nuances of doing business in Africa – has the resources they need to succeed.
