The annual flagship event of the Department of Justice – the Hong Kong Legal Week – will be held from 4 to 8 November 2024. With the theme of
“Hong Kong Common Law System: World Class Springboard to China and Beyond”, the Hong Kong Legal Week 2024 provides an opportunity for participants to participate in a series of professional and insightful discussions and exchanges with prominent experts, practitioners, government officials and academics on a wide spectrum of topics from international law, developments in alternative dispute resolution, opportunities in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and the Belt & Road, to the rule of law in the region and beyond.
The Hong Kong Legal Week 2024 will kick off with the Asia-Pacific International Private Law Summit, co-organised with The International Institute for the Unification of Private Law (UNIDROIT). The Summit serves as the perfect occasion for experienced legal academics and practitioners world-wide to gather and discuss the pivotal role of international private law and technology in enhancing access to credit, investment, and sustainable development across the Asia-Pacific region.
