See you in Toronto!
Gianni & Origoni will be attending the IBA Annual Conference 2025
From 2 to 7 November, our multidisciplinary team of experts will once again be attending the IBA Annual Conference, this year in Toronto.

We have been active participants in the International Bar Association’s (IBA) Annual Conference for many years, recognising it as one of the leading global forums for the legal profession. Each year it brings together over 5,000 lawyers, business leaders, regulators, and policymakers from more than 130 jurisdictions, fostering knowledge-sharing, dialogue, and opportunities for professional growth and networking.
