For the fourth time, CERHA HEMPEL has organised the European Future Challenge in cooperation with ELSA (the European Law Students Association).
Law students and young professionals from Austria, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia are invited to participate in this international competition.
Each year, the European Future Challenge examines issues related to "Sustainability and green innovation in European law". This year, candidates are invited to write an essay addressing the topic of "Regulating AI for a Sustainable Future: Legal Challenges and Opportunities".
Prizes will be awarded for the best essay in each participating country (National Award) and for the overall winner selected from all essays submitted (International Award). Each national winner will be awarded a prize of EUR 500. The international winner will be awarded a prize of EUR 1,000.
Sustainability is firmly enshrined in CERHA HEMPEL's corporate strategy. The responsible management of resources, economic corporate governance and stable relationships are integral parts of the firm's corporate culture. CERHA HEMPEL also strives to give back to society by contributing to the success of charitable projects and other activities in order to achieve sustainability goals together.
"It's also important for CERHA HEMPEL to be a leader in the area of sustainability and social responsibility. We look forward to receiving lots of entries and we're particularly interested in innovative ideas and the critical examination of current legal developments by young people in law", said CERHA HEMPEL partner Dr. Bernhard Kofler-Senoner, LL.M., who is jointly responsible for CEE cooperation.
