About 2020 CELIS Virtual Symposium
2 Half-Days | 6 In-Depth Sessions
Expert speakers from the European Commission, OECD, EU Member States, Businesses, Law Firms, and Academia
The CELIS Virtual Symposium 2020 serves three purposes:
- training for the benefit of invited EU Member State screening authorities,
- exchange of opinion for purposes of identifying the scope for convergence in official practices in investment screening, and
- exploring approaches to teaching a Common European Law on Investment Screening.
The CELIS Virtual Symposium 2020 is placed in the context of the initiative aiming at creating a “Common European Law on Investment Screening” (CELIS), kicked off at the 2019 CELIS (Inaugural) Conference, by Steffen Hindelang (SDU) and Andreas Moberg (GU).
The CELIS Virtual Symposium 2020 is hosted by Steffen Hindelang (SDU) and Jens Hillebrand Pohl (UM)
