It has once again been an absolute pleasure to spotlight the exceptional in-house legal talent that Luxembourg has to offer in the 2025 edition of the GC Powerlist: Luxembourg. Building on the success of our inaugural edition, this year’s publication continues to celebrate the insightful, forward-thinking, and highly skilled lawyers who are shaping the legal and business landscape of this dynamic country at the very heart of the European business ecosystem.
Interviewing this year’s cohort of outstanding legal professionals was both an honor and an inspiration. Their deep expertise, strategic acumen, and unwavering dedication to excellence are not only impressive, but vital to the continued success of the organisations they serve.
This edition is a tribute to their remarkable contributions—from navigating complex cross-border matters and leading high-stakes transactions, to pioneering innovative legal solutions, including the integration of emerging technologies such as AI. Their stories reflect a dynamic profession that is constantly evolving, and they exemplify the calibre of counsel that Luxembourg continues to foster – especially at a time when external challenges are more numerous and complex than at any other time in recent history.
Alongside Loyens & Loeff Luxembourg, Legal 500 is proud to share their achievements and insights, and we hope this edition continues to inspire the wider legal and business community, both within Luxembourg and beyond.
On 15th May 2025, Legal 500 celebrated the 2025 edition of its GC Powerlist: Austria in the historic offices of CERHA HEMPEL. This year’s Powerlist once again recognises a stellar collection of the country’s top senior in-house counsel, and leading practitioners came together to celebrate their achievement.
The evening commenced with a welcome from Isabel Caine, Event Content Editor at Legal 500, followed by an address from CERHA HEMPEL managing partner Albert Birkner.
Nicole Christ, Head of Legal at RHI Magnesita, then took to the stage to deliver a topical and considered keynote speech on key challenges in-house counsel face in today’s market and some of the curveballs, such as rapid advancements in AI, being thrown their way. Christ spoke to the constant adaptability, resilience and growth expected of general counsel – qualities demonstrated by those in the room.
The convivial atmosphere in the room saw honourees collect their certificates and take their picture with Isabel and Albert, with each other, their colleagues, and with various partners from CERHA HEMPEL. Attendees then enjoyed further networking opportunities, accompanied by drinks and canapés.
Legal 500 would like to thank CERHA HEMPEL for sponsoring the GC Powerlist Austria: 2025 and extend a warm and well-deserved congratulations to everyone who made it onto the list.
