About the Conference
The theme for the IPBA Annual Meeting and Conference 2024 in Tokyo is “New World, New Wisdom”. As we look to the future, it is important to explore, share and develop common wisdom that everyone can understand and accept, which transcends race, creed, gender, social status, country or region. This new wisdom will enable us to create a new world which protects human rights and an environment in which everyone can live together in harmony.
The IPBA Annual Meeting and Conference 2024 in Tokyo is a perfect opportunity to discuss what we can do as a legal profession to work toward this goal. You will be able to share and expand your knowledge with colleagues, consider the future of our profession, and strengthen relationships with practitioners from around the world. We are looking forward to meeting you in Tokyo, where you will be given a ‘once-in-an-era’ chance to network, engage in stimulating conversations with colleagues, and experience the best of what this traditional, yet truly cosmopolitan city has to offer.
Welcome back to Tokyo!
