European Justice Forum Members Meeting
On 12 June, EJF hosted its first Members Meeting of 2024, bringing together participants both in-person and virtually. The event, held at the offices of our legal partner Stibbe in Amsterdam, featured a robust agenda focused on legal and regulatory topics. The meeting brought together a vibrant mix of industry professionals for an afternoon filled with debates and networking.
The event began with a luncheon, allowing early arrivals to network and engage informally before the formal sessions began. The agenda included insightful presentations and discussions on key files such as the transposition of the Representative Actions Directive (RAD), the impact of the Product Liability Directive (PLD), insights about Third Party Litigation (TPLF), the effects of mass litigation in Europe, and outcomes of European Elections. Each session was led by top experts, including Moya Stevenson, Prof. Jeroen Kortmann, Dr. David Markworth, Isabella Wijnberg, Fredrik Erixon, Herbert Woopen, Ekkart Kaske and others, who framed and sparked lively discussions. Attendees reacted with their own perspectives and questions, making the sessions dynamic and interactive.
The meeting facilitated the exchange of ideas, allowed the participants to learn about the problematics surrounding access to and delivery of civil justice in a more holistic manner and fostered the creation of new professional relationships.
The event concluded successfully, with many attendees staying for the networking dinner. A big thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to the insightful debates. With a view to promote balanced, transparent and efficient access to civil justice, EJF will continue offering valuable platforms for members to connect and enhance their professional growth.
