Busy and fulfilling days in Chicago this week! I’m so glad to be part of the incredible community of tech lawyers at ITechLaw Association . This conference was especially meaningful for me in two ways. First, in my current role as Co-Chair of the Young Lawyers Committee alongside Luca Tormen , we hosted our first exclusive dine-around for young lawyers, which was a huge success. So good, we didn't even take pics! 🚀 Second, it was my first time speaking at the conference, as part of the panel “Navigating Legal Risk in Agentic AI.” Together with Nick Maietta and Nick Kadochnikov , we explored how emerging agentic AI systems are challenging traditional concepts of liability and risk allocation. The session filled the main conference room and sparked truly thought-provoking discussions. A fantastic experience all around, and already looking forward to the next conference!

I had the privilege of attending the ABA Section of Labor and Employment Law International Committee’s Midyear Conference in the beautiful Prague, and it was truly an enriching experience both professionally and personally. The panels and discussions, as we are used to with ABA in general and our outstanding Committee chairs in particular, provided valuable insights into current challenges and global trends in labor and employment law, once again highlighting the importance of international exchange and collaboration. It was also a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with colleagues and meet with friends from around the world, build new relationships, and continue strengthening ties within this outstanding professional, but also personal, community. The social events and the unique atmosphere of Prague made every interaction even more memorable.
