The International Bar Association (IBA) Annual Conference returns in 2026, this time to the Danish capital, Copenhagen - one of the world's foremost gatherings of the international legal community. Browne Jacobson is proud to be among the law firms represented, with a delegation of seven partners travelling from our UK and Ireland offices this October.

Why we're attending the IBA Annual Conference

For Browne Jacobson, the IBA Annual Conference is an opportunity to engage with the international legal community at the highest level, deepening relationships with existing clients and contacts, forging new connections across jurisdictions and practice areas, and staying abreast of the issues shaping cross-border law and business.

With our growing international capability and a client base that increasingly operates across borders, IBA is the natural forum for our team. This year's Copenhagen conference is a particularly fitting stage: a city that exemplifies the values - innovation, sustainability, rule of law and transparency - that define the most pressing conversations in international legal practice today.

About the IBA Annual Conference 2026

The 2026 IBA Annual Conference will be held at the Bella Center in Copenhagen, Denmark. Copenhagen is a city at the intersection of tradition and innovation; home to a flourishing start-up ecosystem with particular strength in IT, life sciences, and clean energy, while simultaneously ranking amongst the very highest in global indices for sustainability, transparency and the rule of law.

The city's business community includes globally recognised organisations across a diverse range of sectors, and its commitment to a stable, open and highly ranked regulatory environment makes it a natural home for international legal dialogue.
