On 13 December, the St Petersburg International Business Association (SPIBA) announced the results of an election of the co-chairs of the Legal Committee which resulted in the re-election of Maxim Ali, Head of IP / IT Practice at Maxima Legal.

“In August 2017, SPIBA members elected me as one of the co-chairs of the SPIBA Legal Committee, and I am very glad that my contribution since then has been acknowledged. The last two years have been a period of significant professional development for me. I think that involvement in SPIBA should be done with an international outlook; this will allow us to gain access to international projects in the field of information technology and ICOs, achieve positive court decisions, and even influence judicial practice. Our achievements are largely related to the tasks and challenges facing the Legal Committee – a platform that allow us to find out new ideas, identify urgent business problems and look for like-minded people”, commented Maxim Ali.

The St Petersburg International Business Association is an independent non-profit organisation which brings together foreign and Russian companies to exchange information and experience, to interact with authorities and establish business contacts in an informal friendly atmosphere.

The activities of the Legal Committee are aimed at improving the legislative framework in order to create favourable conditions for doing business, and also allows solving of complex issues in manufacturing, trade and tax legislation that face companies in the North-West of Russia.
