Lectures and Seminars
Third Thursday series
Axiom has introduced a series of lectures and seminars on the third Thursday of the month. The aim is to provide topical insights into developments in the law and legal practice. Each seminar will last an hour, and will be preceded by coffee and followed by drinks. The events are open to instructing agents and are free of charge.
The series was launched on 17 January 2008 by Richard Keen QC, who looked at legal solutions for the 21st Century.
Talks in the Third Thursday series cover a wide range of topics in the broad areas of commercial and public law in which members of Axiom have particular expertise.
These events are eligible for CPD.
The events already planned are listed below. If you are interested in receiving information regarding these, please subscribe below. Invitations will be generated three weeks prior to each lecture and bookings accepted thereafter. Please also be aware that, regardless which venue we are using, space is limited and places may have to be allocated on a 'first come, first served' basis.
Please check back on this page as we update it with future events.
