The Legal 500 GC Powerlist Austria Awards took place in the offices of CERHA HEMPEL, with CERHA HEMPEL as exclusive partner.
The evening celebrated outstanding in-house counsel from leading companies across Austria—recognising individuals who are shaping and strengthening the Austrian legal landscape at the highest level. It was a pleasure to welcome many of the country’s top in-house lawyers directly into our offices for this occasion.
The event was hosted on behalf of CERHA HEMPEL by Managing Partners Albert Birkner and Clemens Hasenauer. The evening was opened by Margherita Birri, Research Editor Legal 500, followed by a lively welcome speech of Clemens Hasenauer. The keynote was then delivered by Martina Wachernig, Head of Legal at VERBUND AG, before this year’s GC Powerlist Austria honourees were announced.
After the ceremony, guests connected and continued conversations over drinks and canapés in a relaxed and lively atmosphere.
We warmly congratulate all winners on this well-deserved recognition.
A big thank you to the team behind the GC Powerlist Austria - Margherita Birri, Sanna Mahmood, Kaela Bedeau - for the excellent collaboration and for making the evening such a success!
