Episode #26 is a tough and personal one: Martin Schirmbacher and
Marlene Schreiber speak to two friends and colleagues from Ukraine
on how they are doing, how their lives changed and how legal work
is currently been done. Oleksiy Stolyarenko heads the IT/TMT
industry group of Baker McKenzie in Kyiv and Nazar Chernyavsky is
the CEO of one of the largest independent law firms in Ukraine:
Sayenko Kharenko. Martin and Marlene have known and worked with
both of them for years; all four of them are engaged in
international legal networks: the INTA (International Trademark
Association) and Technology Law Committee of the IBA (International
Bar Association). In this episode we are not talking trademarks and
patents or cybersecurity and M&A in Tech. We are talking about
the Russian war in Ukraine and how it affects our colleagues.
Oleksiy and Nazar are telling us about personal experiences with
the aggression. Oleksiy had just returned from Bucha. Close friends
of Nazar have barely escaped the Russian army in Irpin. And we talk
about how to keep a law firm running; how to keep the people
positive; how to keep the economy working - in times of war. Plus
we speak about the charitable work both of them lead and their
firms participate in. And also how listeners - how you - can help.
