CELIS Thought Leaders
A Rountable Series Where Investment Screening Experts Connect
Thought Leaders’ roundtables form part of CELIS’s broader role as the leading non-profit, non-partisan institution for expertise, dialogue, and exchange on investment screening in a high-trust environment. The roundtables are a series of intimate exchanges held across Europe among attorneys-at-law, government officials, investors, in-house counsels, and academia, designed to:
- Stay ahead of the curve and deepen practical expertise in national investment screening regimes and their application in complex multijurisdictional transactions.
- Bridge policy design and legal implementation of investment security law through public-private exchange.
- Build durable and trusted professional networks with public authorities, lawyers, and industry leaders.
- Become part of the CELIS high-trust, small-room, invitation-only investment screening community.
The Thought Leaders roundtables operate as a governance-neutral, non-advocacy platform for technical exchange, not owned or controlled by any single stakeholder group.
