Sparke Helmore’s Commonwealth Executive Forum is an annual gathering directed at senior Commonwealth lawyers, with each instalment focused on a topic of particular interest to the legal leadership of the Commonwealth. The Forum is held in Canberra and intended to provide a space for the open exchange of ideas and insights amongst Executive and Senior Executive-level lawyers across Commonwealth agencies. The event is not recorded, and discussions are held under the Chatham House Rule.

Our next Forum will be held on 6 August 2024 and centred around the topic of Artificial Intelligence and the issues that senior Commonwealth lawyers need to prepare for and grapple with in responding to recent developments in AI. Numbers are limited, so in-house Commonwealth lawyers (at EL1, EL2 and SES levels) are warmly invited to register their interest here.

If you have any questions about the Forum, please contact Karwan Eskerie or Caitlin Catalano.
