SUMMARY:Legal Talks: 28th Regime\, myth or reality?
DESCRIPTION:Setting up in one EU country is hard enough. Expanding to a second or third usually means new lawyers\, new company forms\, new notaries and new rules for shares and investors. The 28th regime wants to change that. \nIn March 2026\, the European Commission proposed EU Inc.\, a single optional company form that would work the same way in every member state\, sitting next to the 27 national systems. The promise: register a company fully online in about 48 hours\, for under €100\, with common rules for raising money and giving equity to your team. \nThis session will explore what is on the table\, what it could mean for your company and what to watch in the coming months. \n\nSpeaker: Rui Neves Ferreira (Co-founder & Managing Partner at NOVA Legal) \n\nAGENDA: \n• 18:00 — Arrival. \n• 18:30 — The 28th regime\, explained without the jargon. \n• 19:00 — Ask the Lawyer: open questions from the room. \n• 19:15 — Drinks and conversation.
