LCF Law Group acted as Partner and Founder of the smart-art-media project “Land Response”
LCF acted as a partner and founder of the Land Response project. This is a unique social project consisting of three parts: “smart” (forecast analytics), “art” (participation of artists for deepening dialogue on the matter) and “media” (media coverage of the project). The project is devoted to the study of possible scenarios for the land market’s development in Ukraine. The study was conducted by Valery Pekar, alongside the WikiCityNomika team.
“First of all, in this project it is important for us that the findings are independent and not committed. We are attracted by the fact that the study will form scenarios for the development of the land market, and not create a response to someone’s narrow corporate interests. This approach creates trust and opportunity for discussing scenarios in the community, among experts and practitioners. And the public consensus is a precondition for the successful implementation of any reform,” commented Artem Stoyanov.
Anna Ogrenchuk acts as lecturer in the educational initiative Leadership in Law
Anna acted as a lecturer in the Leadership in Law educational platform for lawyers. This is an educational initiative that teaches students and young lawyers the basics of building and managing a law firm. Anna gave a lecture on building an effective legal practice within the framework of the programme “Managing a Competitive Law Business”.
LCF Law Group joined the online charity platform Charitum
LCF Law Group joined the online auction Charitum which took place from 19 April to 25 April. The auctioned lot was a flight over Kyiv in the legendary American aircraft Cessna 172 with LCF’s Managing Partner Anna Ogrenchuk. The auction proceeds were donated to the charitable fund for assisting ATO members and their families “KOLO”.
CHARITUM is a network of charity online auctions conducted by people who have succeeded in their work. Some are famous, some are widely known in narrow circles. The main mission of the platform is to ensure that each lot has a practical benefit for the winner.
LCF has supported the ELSA Moot Court (EMC2)
LCF Law Group acted as the official partner of the European Regional Round of ELSA Moot Court (EMC2), student competition on the rights of WTO, organised annually by the European Student Rights Association (ELSA). LCF regularly supports projects of young lawyers from the Association, as one of the priorities of the firm is to support and grow young legal talent. We proudly sponsored the launch of EMC2 – a world-renowned competition involving students from over 100 universities each year. The right to hold the Regional Round is a great honour for the country, as well as a unique opportunity to support its image abroad.
Funding scholarships for the Master’s Programme at the School of Management of the Ukrainian Catholic University
Anna Ogrenchuk funded an annual scholarship for the Master’s Degree in Public Administration at the School of Management of the Ukrainian Catholic University. The scholarship covers 100% of the programme’s costs.
Anna Ogrenchuk, Ph.D., Attorney at Law, Managing Partner of LCF Law Group: “We pay considerable attention to the development of talented youth. We see this as an investment in the future of Ukraine. That is why we made a decision to provide a scholarship for the Master’s degree in Public Administration. At the moment, the public sector needs highly skilled specialists who will be able to think systematically and innovatively, make effective decisions.”
LCF supported project of the National Culture and Arts Complex “Mystetskyi Arsenal”
LCF Law Group supported the Culture and Arts Complex “Mystetskyi Arsenal” in implementing the Dialogia X project dedicated to the anniversary of the Art Kyiv Contemporary Forum. This project initiated a successful and long-term cooperation between LCF, represented by Anna Ogrenchuk, and Natalya Zabolotnaya.
LCF’s Managing Partner Anna Ogrenchuk commented: “The partnership between culture and business is an integral part of corporate culture of all socially responsible successful Western law firms. This practice is very close to us. LCF has already joined more than 50 projects, including non-public. And it is with special warmth that I would like to highlight our partnership with Mystetskyi Arsenal. We have joined two projects: Kateryna Bilokur’s exhibition “I Want to Be an Artist” and the Art Kyiv Contemporary Forum which Natalia spoke about.”
