2nd Annual Awards Ceremony
Shangri-la’s Kerry Centre Hotel, Beijing
September 18 2008

China Law & Practice will hold its 2nd Annual Awards ceremony at Shangri-la’s Kerry Centre Hotel, Beijing, on September 18. The evening will commence with a cocktail reception, followed by a four-course banquet and awards ceremony.

The Awards mark the culmination of our annual research process which, this year, has been undertaken in corporation with the IFLR1000 and draws on research conducted for the Asialaw Profiles 2009. We have canvassed the market to pinpoint the deals and firms leading the market through legal innovation.

Listed below are the nominees for Deal of the Year (in five different practice areas), International Firm of the Year (in seven practice areas) and PRC Firm of the Year (in seven practice areas). There will be Outstanding Achievement and overall Firm of the Year awards announced on the night.

The Awards provides an unrivalled opportunity for the very best private practice firms and in-house counsel from across China to come together for a refined evening of cocktails, dining and conversation. Tickets are strictly limited so, to reserve your table or seats, please contact Kelley Fong on +852 2842 6965 or at kfong@alphk.com

If you have any questions about the Awards please do not hesitate to get in touch. For booking enquiries or to advertise in the September edition of China Law & Practice magazine (which will serve as the program for the Awards ceremony), please contact Mr Kelley Fong, Associate Publisher, on +852 2842 6965 or kfong@alphk.com.
