On November 25, 2020, Joseph Tomkiewicz, a partner at Tilleke & Gibbins and co-chair of the firm’s regional energy practice, will join a panel of energy industry leaders from around the world for a live panel discussion at the International Bar Association (IBA) Annual Conference. Originally due to be held in Miami, the 2020 conference has moved online this year under the theme “Virtually Together,” in light of the ongoing global health crisis. 

In addition to Joseph, the panel will include panelists from global energy security consultant, Converge Strategies; Ukranian national energy company, Naftogaz; and, the European Commission, moderated by leading energy lawyers from the US and Europe. Together the panel will discuss the latest developments in the energy industry, with a particular focus on the symbiotic relationship between energy supply and national security.

The IBA is an association of international legal practitioners, bar associations, and law societies, with over 80,000 members from 190 bar associations and law societies worldwide, and the annual IBA conference is one of the most important events of the legal practice calendar.
