We are delighted to announce that the annual Wilberforce Commercial Conference returns on Thursday 24th March 2022 and takes place at Kimpton Fitzroy London, Russell Square. The programme features a broad sweep of topical talks and workshops; from essential updates on developing law to a session discussing the legal issues around cryptocurrency assets and AI.
Sessions delivered by our members will aim to focus on emerging trends and future developments in the commercial field which it is hoped will be of relevance to litigators and non-litigators alike. Workshops will facilitate detailed interactive discussion of specific areas of interest with the aim of sharing knowledge and experience. Our “5 minute pitch” session returns by popular demand, as well as a new addition to our Commercial Conference programme; the QC showcase session entitled “Would I lie to you?” A panel of Wilberforce silks will present some weird and wonderful cases, but which ones are made up? You, the audience, will cast your votes!
The conference will be followed by a drinks reception at 5.20pm.
Please note that guests need to register their place at the conference in advance and will need to browse the programme to decide on their choice of workshop before purchasing their ticket.
To RSVP or if you have any questions, please contact seminars@wilberforce.co.uk.
We hope to see you there!

A fiduciary’s duty to disclose: a shield, not a sword?
In this article in our commercial litigation insights series, Alice Hawker examines the Court of Appeal's recent decision in G.I. Globinvestment Ltd v XY ERS UK Limited [2026] EWCA Civ 1248, considering whether a fiduciary's duty to disclose is a shield (against claims alleging breach of the ’no conflict’ or ’no profit’ rules) or a sword (to be used as a freestanding claim).
