    International Briefing October 2025


    Dear Friends and Colleagues,

    welcome to the October issue of ADVANT Beiten's International Briefing.

    In September 2025 ADVANT Beiten celebrated the opening of its new office in London with Sebastian Diehl, LL.M. (Cambridge) joining as an Equity Partner. We are pleased to share an interview with Sebastian Diehl, in which he reflects on his professional journey and outlines his strategic vision for ADVANT Beiten’s presence in London.

    In this issue we will also highlight interesting developments in the European and German legal landscape, invite you to meet us at international events, and tell you about our recent deals.

    You can find the newsletter by following this link.

    Kind regards,
