Coffee Breaks: Connecting Minds


Our Coffee Breaks: Connecting Minds series continues with our popular video conversation format established in 2020 and continued through 2021 and 2022. This year, the INSOL Europe Country Coordinators will share their experiences with representatives from their local associations and/or other stakeholders, highlighting reforms such as the implementation of the EU Directive on Restructuring and Insolvency in the concerned jurisdictions, challenges of the national insolvency framework to address the current crisis and other key issues in their jurisdiction. If you would like to be informed of future Coffee Breaks, please use the form on our Contact Us page.

Coffee Breaks: Connecting Minds are brought to you in partnership with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and its Legal Transition Programme (LTP). The LTP is the EBRD’s initiative to contribute to the improvement of the investment climate in the Bank’s countries of operations by helping create an investor-friendly, transparent and predictable legal environment. This objective is implemented by the Legal Transition Team, a dedicated team of specialised lawyers working across the 38 economies where the EBRD invests.
