GILA’s mission
Building on Geneva’s rich legal tradition, GILA is dedicated to enhancing this heritage by positioning Geneva as a leading global centre for legal services and dispute resolution.
GILA brings together the various players in Geneva’s legal and business communities, including lawyers, judges, in-house counsel, technology and digitalisation experts, as well as academic institutions, governmental and non-governmental organisations, with the aim of promoting Geneva as an international capital of law and legal services.
GILA’s aim is to :
- Promote Swiss law both nationally and internationally.
- Promote Geneva as a centre for resolving disputes, particularly international ones.
- Highlight the central role of legal services as a factor in social development and economic competitiveness.
GILA organises an annual legal week of events, The Geneva International Legal Week (GILW), which brings together the various players in Geneva’s legal profession and legal services to discuss the key issues affecting them and to find solutions to the challenges facing the legal sector and dispute resolution in the future.
