A Message From the Editor

But there was also other interesting global legal industry news: Some law firms are still actively advising on IPOs from China and elsewhere in Asia; Madrid wants to be the next arbitration hub; and AI is creating issues in an African court. You can check out these and other stories below. As always, thanks for reading.
