We hosted a HL BaSE Catalyst workshop in Paris, in collaboration with our partner SINGA, bringing together in-house counsel and Hogan Lovells volunteers to advise social enterprises on various data protection and cyber security matters.
"Un atelier très pédagogique qui m’a fait prendre conscience de l’importance de ce sujet. J'ai pu repartir avec des conseils concrets et adaptés à mon projet.
A very informative workshop that made me realize how important this topic is. I left with practical advice tailored to my project."
Manon Crozet. Founder, Blabla Creation
We were thrilled to be joined by volunteers from our corporate clients, including Mirakl, Arval (BNP Paribas Group) and Mastercard, who worked alongside Hogan Lovells volunteers to advise 5 incredible organisations, including:
-
NationHug creates a digital platform (website and mobile app) that centralizes recommendations for professionals (lawyers, doctors, real estate agents, accountants, etc.) made by and for people with an immigration background.
-
Blabla Création supports newly arrived people in their host country in learning the local language through a creative and collective project-based learning approach and principles of popular education; to foster self-confidence in foreign language learners for more effective and fulfilling learning; to foster learners' motivation in language learning; to train facilitators capable of leading groups to learn the host country's language by creating a creative and collective project and using popular education methods; to mobilize a creative community of mutual support and welcome.

"J’ai eu le plaisir d’assister à l’atelier juridique de sensibilisation à la protection des données personnelles (RGPD) qui s’est tenu au cabinet Hogan Lovells, et je tiens à exprimer ma profonde reconnaissance aux organisateurs. L’atelier ainsi que l’accueil ont été organisés de manière exemplaire. Nous avons reçu des informations théoriques claires et précises sur le sujet, puis eu l’occasion d’échanger individuellement avec les avocats au sujet de nos projets. La rencontre s’est conclue par un moment convivial autour de rafraîchissements, propice aux échanges informels. Je suis très reconnaissante pour cette opportunité.
I had the pleasure of attending the legal workshop on personal data protection (GDPR) organized at Hogan Lovells, and I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the organizers. The workshop and reception were organized in an exemplary manner. We received clear and precise theoretical information on the subject, followed by an opportunity to discuss our projects individually with the lawyers. The meeting ended with refreshments, which allowed for informal discussions. I am very grateful for this opportunity."
