SUMMARY:When AI invents – Implications for the future of innovation
DESCRIPTION:The LTS hub is delighted to bring a timely conversation with Robert Peake (Parter\, Keystone Law) and Prof Ryan Abbott (Consultant Solicitor Advocate\, Keystone Law\, and author of The Reasonable Robot: Artificial Intelligence and the Law) on the question of AI inventorship and the DABUS litigation in UK courts. Prof Christoph Rademacher (Waseda University and Webb Fellow\, LSE) will act as discussant\, making comparative reference to the legal situation concerning AI and IP in other jurisdictions\, including Japan. \n In a previous outing of the DABUS case in the UK Supreme Court ([2023] UKSC 49)\, it was confirmed that the Patents Act 1977 requires a human inventor to be named in a patent application.  The UK High Court has recently issued its decision in DABUS [2025] EWHC 2202 (Ch)\, dismissing an appeal of the latest refusal of Dr. Thaler’s patent application\, which in this instance named Dr. Thaler himself as the inventor\, rather than his AI\, DABUS. The Court of Appeal has now been asked to reconsider the appeal\, and in particular to clarify whether Dr. Thaler’s past statements on the role of DABUS in the inventive process prevent him now from stating that he is the true inventor. Keystone Law are the solicitors for Dr Thaler.  \nSpeakers: \n\nRobert Peake\, Partner\, Keystone Law\nProf Ryan Abbott\, Keystone Law and University of Surrey\n\nChair:  \n\nSiva Thambisetty\, LSE Law School\n\nDiscussant: \n\nProf Christoph Rademacher (Waseda University\, Tokyo and Beatrice Webb Visiting Fellow\, LSE)\n\nSpeaker and Discussant bios: \nRobert Peake: https://www.keystonelaw.com/lawyers/robert-peake \nProf Ryan Abbott: https://www.surrey.ac.uk/people/ryan-abbott  \nProf Christoph Rademacher: https://dpt-pep.w.waseda.jp/en/universities/professor/262/?university-category=waseda-en \nThe event is highly recommended for all LLB and LLM IP students. \n This seminar will operate on a first-come\, first-served basis.

SUMMARY:General Counsel Masterclass | Session 1
DESCRIPTION:Please note that this course is designed for LSE Law/Law and Finance students ONLY. \n\n\nREGISTER HERE \n\nCertificates will be provided to participants who attend all three sessions.  \nThis three-part Masterclass offers an inside look at the world of the modern General Counsel — one of the most consequential and least understood leadership roles in business today. \nDrawing on Bjarne Tellmann’s three decades of legal practice\, including seventeen years as General Counsel of global public companies\, the series explores how the GC role has evolved from legal adviser to strategic leader\, risk architect\, and institutional navigator. \nThe series follows a deliberate arc: from the macro forces reshaping the profession\, to the micro realities of life inside a legal department\, and finally to the personal choices and capabilities that define career success. \nThe goal is to equip students with a clear lens on how the legal profession is changing\, and what it now demands of those who want to thrive within it\, whether in a law firm\, in-house\, in academia\, or with a legal services provider. \nSession 1 \nBeing a General Counsel Today: Careers\, Technology\, and Change \nThe job of the General Counsel has never been more important or more difficult. \nIn this first session\, we step back and take a macro lens\, looking at the larger forces that are reshaping the world in which today’s legal leaders operate. Over the past decade\, corporations have entered an era defined by technological acceleration\, geopolitical volatility\, and rapidly evolving forms of risk. Artificial intelligence is only the most visible part of a deeper shift: companies are transforming themselves into AI-enabled enterprises\, reengineering how decisions are made\, how work is organised\, and how value is created. \nAs that happens\, legal departments are being pulled into new roles. The GC is no longer simply the senior lawyer who gives advice at the end of a process. Increasingly\, they sit at the centre of institutional governance — helping organisations navigate uncertainty\, design resilient operating models\, and make judgment calls in environments where the law is ambiguous\, the risks are interconnected\, and the pace is relentless. \nA core theme of this lecture is that disruption and change in the legal sector is being driven less by law firms or technology vendors than by clients themselves. As in-house teams become more sophisticated and AI-enabled\, they are reshaping what they expect from outside counsel\, what they keep inside\, and how legal work will get structured\, sourced\, and valued. \nWe will explore the emergence of what might be called the “GC 4.0” archetype: a new form of legal leadership shaped by AI\, enterprise risk\, and institutional complexity. Along the way\, we will consider how law firms\, ALSPs\, platforms\, and even legal education are being forced to adapt. \nThis session sets the stage for the series\, exploring how the profession is being reshaped from the client side out \nSpeaker \nBjarne P. Tellmann is CEO of FjordStream Advisors GmbH and a Senior Visiting Fellow in Practice at the LSE Law School. He spent three decades in global legal leadership roles\, including as Founding General Counsel of Haleon plc\, a FTSE 20 company\, and Chief Legal Officer and General Counsel of Pearson plc\, a FTSE 100. He has also held senior leadership positions across Europe\, the United States\, Asia\, and the Middle East at Coca-Cola\, Aramco\, and Kimberly-Clark\, and began his career at Sullivan & Cromwell and White & Case. \nSession 1 – 3 March | 5.30pm – 7pm \nBeing a General Counsel Today: Careers\, Technology\, and Change\nLocation: Student Common Room\, 5th floor\, CKK \nSession 2 – 10 March | 5.30pm – 7pm \nFrom Law School to the C-Suite: What General Counsel and Legal Departments Actually Do in Today’s Companies\nLocation: Student Common Room\, 5th floor\, CKK \nSession 3 – 18 March | 6pm – 7.30pm \nThe Modern Legal Career: What Law School Doesn’t Teach You.

SUMMARY:The Instability of Opportunism: A History of the Russell Tribunal on Vietnam
DESCRIPTION:The PIL hub lunch-time seminar series aims to provide an opportunity to discuss and debate leading research on contemporary\, theoretical and historical issues of international law. \nOn 4th March 2026\, Sjors Polm will present a talk titled ‘The Instability of Opportunism: A History of the Russell Tribunal on Vietnam’  This session will take place in Moot Court Room\, please see venue information below. \nThe Russell Tribunal on Vietnam was animated by a belief that international law had something to offer the antiwar movement. This belief was shared among the tribunal’s participants; the reasons underlying it were not. Based on extensive archival research\, this paper presents the tribunal as a forum where different ideas about international law as a resource for activism were put into action and clashed. It is a story of these ideas\, but more than that it is a story of the forum: of how different ideas about international law and activism gained or lost traction when they were enacted in the tribunal. The paper argues that while the tribunal was created as an opportunistic device to oppose the Vietnam War\, it gradually came to revolve around improving the law. Opportunism proved unstable because it was difficult to separate law’s language and rituals from its values and objectives. \nSpeaker: Sjors Polm is a PhD Researcher at the European University Institute. His thesis\, ‘Doing Politics by Pretending to Do Law’\, is a history of informal performances of law. Before coming to the EUI\, Sjors studied law (LLB\, LLM)\, philosophy (Ba\, Ma)\, and social sciences (BSc) at the University of Amsterdam\, where he also worked as a junior researcher and lecturer. He was a visiting student at NYU Law and is a visiting student at LSE. \n

SUMMARY:General Counsel Masterclass | Session 2
DESCRIPTION:Please note that this course is designed for LSE Law/Law and Finance students ONLY. \n\n\nREGISTER HERE \n\nCertificates will be provided to participants who attend all three sessions.  \nThis three-part Masterclass offers an inside look at the world of the modern General Counsel — one of the most consequential and least understood leadership roles in business today. \nDrawing on Bjarne Tellmann’s three decades of legal practice\, including seventeen years as General Counsel of global public companies\, the series explores how the GC role has evolved from legal adviser to strategic leader\, risk architect\, and institutional navigator. \nThe series follows a deliberate arc: from the macro forces reshaping the profession\, to the micro realities of life inside a legal department\, and finally to the personal choices and capabilities that define career success. \nThe goal is to equip students with a clear lens on how the legal profession is changing\, and what it now demands of those who want to thrive within it\, whether in a law firm\, in-house\, in academia\, or with a legal services provider. \nSession 2 \nFrom Law School to the C-Suite: What General Counsel and Legal Departments Actually Do in Today’s Companies \nWhat does a General Counsel actually do? What is it like to be a lawyer in an in-house legal department? \nIn this second session\, we move from the macro forces shaping the profession to the lived reality of in-house legal practice. We will address the questions many students have about in-house practice but rarely get answered. \nWhere does Legal sit inside a company? How is a department structured? How are resources allocated across crises\, contracts\, compliance\, strategy\, investigations\, and board-level issues? What does it really take to run a legal function that is expected to move fast\, stay credible\, and protect the enterprise\, often with limited resources and constant competing demands? \nWe will look at the General Counsel’s stakeholder universe. Few roles in a corporation are as interconnected. The GC must operate simultaneously with the CEO and Board\, finance and tax\, HR\, technology and cybersecurity\, marketing\, operations\, regulators\, and external counsel\, each with different incentives\, pressures\, and risk tolerances. \nWe will explore how Legal has shifted from being seen as the “department of no” to becoming\, increasingly\, the “department of how”: enabling growth\, navigating grey areas\, and helping organisations move forward responsibly in complex environments. \nAnother focus will be the evolving skillset that the modern lawyer needs. Legal expertise remains essential\, but it is no longer sufficient. Success belongs to professionals who can combine doctrinal strength with: \n\nStrategic judgment\nCommunication across legal and business worlds\nEmotional and cultural intelligence\nComfort with ambiguity and grey zones\nFluency in technology\, data\, and AI\nLeadership\, teamwork\, and organisational awareness\n\nThis lecture also examines the internal leadership dimension: motivating teams of lawyers\, balancing specialists and generalists\, managing legal as a business\, and building an operating model that can thrive in an AI-enabled corporate world. \nIf Lecture 1 was about the horizon\, Lecture 2 is about what it feels like to be steering the ship. \nSpeaker \nBjarne P. Tellmann is CEO of FjordStream Advisors GmbH and a Senior Visiting Fellow in Practice at the LSE Law School. He spent three decades in global legal leadership roles\, including as Founding General Counsel of Haleon plc\, a FTSE 20 company\, and Chief Legal Officer and General Counsel of Pearson plc\, a FTSE 100. He has also held senior leadership positions across Europe\, the United States\, Asia\, and the Middle East at Coca-Cola\, Aramco\, and Kimberly-Clark\, and began his career at Sullivan & Cromwell and White & Case. \nSession 1 – 3 March | 5.30pm – 7pm \nBeing a General Counsel Today: Careers\, Technology\, and Change\nLocation: Student Common Room\, 5th floor\, CKK \nSession 2 – 10 March | 5.30pm – 7pm \nFrom Law School to the C-Suite: What General Counsel and Legal Departments Actually Do in Today’s Companies\nLocation: Student Common Room\, 5th floor\, CKK \nSession 3 – 18 March | 6pm – 7.30pm \nThe Modern Legal Career: What Law School Doesn’t Teach You.

SUMMARY:Substantive principles of public law: what happened after 1987?
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE \nIn Public Law in 1987 a seminal article was published by Anthony Lester and Jeffrey Jowell on ‘Beyond Wednesbury: Substantive principles of administrative law’.  The traditional view of public law is that it is concerned with procedure\, not substance: how a decision is made rather than the substantive outcome.  That seminal article questioned that view.  This lecture will consider what has happened since 1987\, in particular looking at the principles which have developed about legitimate expectations\, protection of human rights\, equality and conformity with policies.  It will also consider the evolution of “rationality” as a ground of judicial review\, with increasing emphasis being placed on the principles of proportionality and reasonableness. \nSpeaker: Lord Justice Rabinder Singh \nChair: Professor Jo Murkens

SUMMARY:Extraction: The Frontiers of Green Capitalism – book talk by Thea Riofrancos\, followed by a discussion by Christine Schwöbel-Patel
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE \n\nWill green capitalism save us from the climate crisis? ‘Clean’ technologies and renewable energy are certainly growing sites of capitalist investment\, with government policies playing a key role in making these sectors profitable. But the supply chains that produce the technologies pose vexing dilemmas for the energy transition. These dilemmas are most dramatic at the extractive frontiers of green capitalism: where the natural resources needed to manufacture electric vehicles and build windmills are extracted. In this talk\, we will unpack these challenges through the lens of lithium\, a so-called ‘critical mineral’ essential for its role in decarbonising one of the most polluting sectors: transportation. With forecasters predicting an enormous surge in lithium demand\, exceeding existing supplies\, Global North governments and downstream firms scramble to ‘secure’ lithium\, resulting in a new state-corporate alliance and the return of vertical integration. Meanwhile\, Global South governments are attempting to leverage critical mineral deposits into sustainable and sovereign economic development. And\, across the world\, environmental and Indigenous movements contest the rapid expansion of extraction\, defending ecosystems\, livelihoods\, and waterways already under pressure from global warming from a new boom in mining. It is in the play of these forces\, unfolding amidst geopolitical rivalry and economic turbulence\, that the energy transition will be forged. To conclude\, we will explore the possibility of a less mining-intensive pathway to zero carbon transportation.\n \nThe Speakers:\n\nThea Riofrancos is an Associate Professor of Political Science at Providence College\, a Strategic Co-Director of the Climate and Community Institute\, and a fellow at the Transnational Institute. Her research focuses on resource extraction\, renewable energy\, climate change\, the global lithium sector\, green technologies\, social movements\, and the Latin American left. She is the author of Extraction: The Frontiers of Green Capitalism (W.W. Norton\, 2025) and Resource Radicals: From Petro-Nationalism to Post-Extractivism in Ecuador (Duke University Press\, 2020)\, and the coauthor of A Planet to Win: Why We Need a Green New Deal (Verso Books\, 2019). Her publications have appeared in scholarly journals such as Global Environmental Politics\, World Politics\, and Perspectives on Politics\, as well as in media outlets including The New York Times\, Financial Times\, Foreign Policy\, n+1\, Dissent\, and more. \n\nChristine Schwöbel-Patel is Professor at Warwick Law School and Co-Director of its Centre for Critical Legal Studies. She is the author of\, among others\, Marketing Global Justice (Cambridge University Press\, 2021) and co-editor of Aesthetics and Counter-Aesthetics of International Justice (Counterpress\, 2023). Her forthcoming book Green Frontiers: The Laws of Extraction in the Green Transition is under contract with Verso. \nChair: Marie Petersmann (Assistant Professor of Law\, LSE Law School & GSoS). \n\n\nThis event is jointly organised by the LSE Law School and the LSE Global School of Sustainability (GSoS).\nPlease note\, although this event is ticketed\, seats will operate on a first-come\, first-serve basis.

SUMMARY:Enemization and Solidarity in Times of War: The Case of the Palestinian Citizens of Israel
DESCRIPTION:Dr Totry-Jubran will present her article exploring how constitutional guarantees of freedom of expression are reshaped under conditions of emergency\, focusing on the treatment of Palestinian citizens of Israel after October 7\, 2023. \nThe article argues that in deeply divided societies\, solidarity operates as a constitutional boundary-making device: state calls for national unity are legally enforced through practices that construct an internal enemy and narrow the scope of protected speech. Drawing on constitutional theory\, emergency governance\, and security-oriented criminal law\, the article shows how expressions of grief\, humanitarian concern\, or solidarity with civilians in Gaza were reclassified as incitement or identification with terrorism. Through analysis of emergency directives\, protest restrictions\, and enforcement patterns\, it demonstrates how constitutional rights were selectively suspended in practice\, producing an ethnonationally stratified regime of free speech. The Israeli case reveals how constitutional law\, under crisis conditions\, becomes a tool for redefining political belonging and the limits of democratic citizenship. \nSpeaker: Dr Manal Totry-Jubran \nChair: Dr Neli Frost (commentator: Prof Tarun Khaitan) \nThis seminar will operate on a first-come\, first-served basis. This event is not open to the public.

SUMMARY:Book Launch: Giulia Claudia Leonelli\, Environmental Leverage in Times of Climate Crisis
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the book launch of Environmental Leverage in Times of Climate Crisis\, published in February 2026\, and for an engaging conversation across the fields of environmental law\, economics and policy. The last years have witnessed the rise of a new generation of trade-related measures\, designed to leverage ‘lower-environmental-ambition’ countries and market actors involved in global value chains. Trade-related environmental leverage can help to remedy the failures of environmental multilateralism\, reshape the trade agenda to cater to the demands of our time\, and entrench more sustainable production and consumption patterns.  Nonetheless\, ‘leveraging’ developed countries must duly address allegations of green protectionism\, green discrimination\, and eco-imperialism.

SUMMARY:Golem Seminar Series - Post-Imperial Unions: Constitutional Alternatives to Empire and Nation-State
DESCRIPTION:What if the EU were not a historical anomaly\, but part of a broader – now largely forgotten – global pattern? \nThis project introduces ‘post-imperial unions’ as a conceptual frame to bring under one lens a range of political and constitutional phenomena until now studied in isolation. These include the EU\, the Commonwealth\, l’Union française\, the Soviet Union\, Rigsfællesskabet\, the West Indies Federation\, federal constitutional schemes for Africa’s and British Raj’s post-imperial futures and interwar schemes to federalize the Chinese empire. Devised between WWI and the 1960s\, these projects offered constitutional alternatives to nation-states in response to the transformation of the global order brought about by imperial decline. If the EU is an outlier\, it is not because it lacks historical peers\, but because it turned out to be one of the most lasting unions born of a once-global search for political associations beyond empire and nation-state. \nPost-Imperial Unions will undertake the first global comparative study of the constitutional projects of post-imperial unions. The aim is not simply to reconstruct overlooked constitutional projects but to transform the way we think about constitutions and the types of political associations they can facilitate and bring about. Through comparative archival work in London\, Cambridge\, Oxford\, Paris\, Florence\, Delhi and Kolkata\, and interdisciplinary collaborations\, the project will map the constitutional pattern\, explore the constitutional ideas\, and assess the constitutional implications of post-imperial unions. In doing so\, Post-Imperial Unions contests the nation-state centred model of constitutions and seeks to build the foundations for novel way of conceptualising\, studying and teaching constitutional law and theory. Beyond constitutional studies\, Post-Imperial Unions advances global political thought by shedding light on the overlooked constitutional dimension of post-imperial projects beyond the nation-state. \nSpeaker: Signe Larsen (Warwick) \nThis seminar will operate on a first-come\, first-served basis.

SUMMARY:General Counsel Masterclass | Session 3
DESCRIPTION:Please note that this course is designed for LSE Law/Law and Finance students ONLY. \n\n\nREGISTER HERE \n\nCertificates will be provided to participants who attend all three sessions.  \nThis three-part Masterclass offers an inside look at the world of the modern General Counsel — one of the most consequential and least understood leadership roles in business today. \nDrawing on Bjarne Tellmann’s three decades of legal practice\, including seventeen years as General Counsel of global public companies\, the series explores how the GC role has evolved from legal adviser to strategic leader\, risk architect\, and institutional navigator. \nThe series follows a deliberate arc: from the macro forces reshaping the profession\, to the micro realities of life inside a legal department\, and finally to the personal choices and capabilities that define career success. \nThe goal is to equip students with a clear lens on how the legal profession is changing\, and what it now demands of those who want to thrive within it\, whether in a law firm\, in-house\, in academia\, or with a legal services provider. \nSession 3 \nThe Modern Legal Career: What Law School Doesn’t Teach You. Lessons from a GC \nThe path of a successful legal career is rarely linear. \nIn this final session\, we turn from institutions to individuals: how careers are built\, how opportunities emerge\, and what it really takes to thrive as a lawyer in a profession undergoing rapid transformation. \nWe will draw on Bjarne’s own journey\, which took him from law school to law firms\, and then to global companies\, moving across continents and industries. In so doing\, we will discuss the organic and often unpredictable nature of the legal career path. Serendipity matters. So does curiosity – and the willingness to take risks rather than remain trapped by “golden handcuffs.” \nWe will talk candidly about the differences between life in a law firm and life in-house\, and why there is no single “best” path. Some lawyers find deep fulfilment as partners and specialists; others are drawn to the breadth\, ambiguity\, and leadership demands of the corporate environment. \nWe will also explore the importance of networking and mentoring\, not as transactional exercises\, but as long-term practices of intellectual generosity\, relationship-building\, and professional community. \nThe session will consider what will distinguish a successful and meaningful career in today’s landscape\, blending both timeless wisdom and modern insights in a changing legal landscape. This is ultimately a lecture about agency — and how to shape a meaningful legal career in an era of disruption. \nSpeaker \nBjarne P. Tellmann is CEO of FjordStream Advisors GmbH and a Senior Visiting Fellow in Practice at the LSE Law School. He spent three decades in global legal leadership roles\, including as Founding General Counsel of Haleon plc\, a FTSE 20 company\, and Chief Legal Officer and General Counsel of Pearson plc\, a FTSE 100. He has also held senior leadership positions across Europe\, the United States\, Asia\, and the Middle East at Coca-Cola\, Aramco\, and Kimberly-Clark\, and began his career at Sullivan & Cromwell and White & Case. \nSession 1 – 3 March | 5.30pm – 7pm \nBeing a General Counsel Today: Careers\, Technology\, and Change\nLocation: Student Common Room\, 5th floor\, CKK \nSession 2 – 10 March | 5.30pm – 7pm \nFrom Law School to the C-Suite: What General Counsel and Legal Departments Actually Do in Today’s Companies\nLocation: Student Common Room\, 5th floor\, CKK \nSession 3 – 18 March | 6pm – 7.30pm \nThe Modern Legal Career: What Law School Doesn’t Teach You.
