The launch of this edition of The In-House Lawyer magazine coincides with an important period for our parent company, Legalease, and our coverage of the in-house legal community. Firstly we saw in-house teams compete in four categories at the Legal Business Awards, which returned as a live event following the pandemic, bringing together 600 guests in Covid-safe conditions at the Grosvenor House hotel on 30 September (see Significant matters).
The awards night also coincided with the launch of the GC Powerlist UK 2021, which is included with this edition of IHL. The research team, led by Head of Research for the GC Powerlist series, Joe Boswell, focused their efforts on the theme of ‘resilience and recovery’, reflecting the transitional nature of the response to the Covid-19 crisis that has endured since our 2020 edition.
