ENS, together with The Legal 500, hosted the inaugural GC Powerlist: East Africa Awards at Villa Rosa Kempinski in Nairobi, Kenya on Wednesday, 14 August 2024.
The event celebrated over 131 East African general counsel for their notable contributions to the legal community, handpicked by The Legal 500’s rigorous selection process.
In attendance were the GC Powerlisters, along with ENS Executives from our offices across Africa, led by ENS CE, Mzi Mgudlwa and our East African Office Heads.
Désiré Kamanzi, head of ENS’ Rwanda office, had this to say, “It is very exciting to be gathered amongst a crowd of East African legal elite. The calibre of talent on display affirms that the future of the legal landscape in East Africa is very bright indeed!”
“The Legal 500’s recognition of general counsel in East Africa is testament to the quality of legal expertise in our region, and it’s crucial to recognise their role in the business landscape. To work alongside such legal talent is a privilege and an honour” added, Nigel Shaw, Head of ENS’ Kenya office.
