Green Power Conferences’ events attract over 5,000 attendees annually, with World Hydrogen Week, scheduled for Copenhagen in September, being its flagship conference.
Cripps’ team, led by legal director Kate Sun and comprising Andreea Rusu, Lawrence Moran, Hannah Morris, and Charlotte Spendley, advised on all aspects of the corporate law surrounding the sale. Holly Milne-Peasey from Cripps’ employment law team also provided specialist advice throughout the transaction.

Nadim Chaudhry, CEO at Green Power Conferences added: “The Cripps team, led by Kate Sun ably assisted by Andreea Rusu, gave excellent professional service and kept the deal moving forward even when the negotiations were hard.
