We are absolutely thrilled to be Law Firm of the Year Austria!!! 💪 🎉 🏆   The JUVE awards, presented annually by the German legal publisher JUVE Verlag, are one of the most coveted awards in the legal sector in the German-speaking countries. After nominations for 2020 and 2021 and another nomination this year, we finally “won the race” and have the honour of being named Law Firm of the Year Austria.   The award makes us very proud – not only because we were nominated alongside the fantastic law firms AKELA, Baker McKenzie Austria, BINDER GRÖSSWANG Rechtsanwälte GmbH and SAXINGER. The distinction also confirms that our hard work and our business strategy & recent developments have been recognised by the market. However, this award is by no means just a confirmation of our development.

The #hydrogen supply chain and its challenges - from import by pipeline and ship to users and consumers   Representatives of companies from Norway, Denmark, Scotland, the Netherlands and Germany discussed this key issue. There was a consensus that hydrogen has the potential to become a key component of a #sustainableenergy supply. But the topic is complex: whether scaling, transport, storage or infrastructure - intensive research and development, targeted investments and close cooperation between industry, politics and science are required to ensure efficient interaction between all stakeholders.   Our experts on regulatory issues in the energy sector, Dr Markus Böhme and Dr. Christian Ertel, reported on their consulting practice and the legal and economic hurdles that the still young market still has to overcome on the way to commercialisation.   It was a top-class gathering in our Hamburg office and our thanks go to the organising partners Erneuerbare Energien Hamburg (EEHH), Innovation Norway, Scottish Enterprise, NBSO Network, @NRW4Climate and the Niedersächsisches Ministerium für Wirtschaft, Verkehr, Bauen und Digitalisierung
