These risks can be managed and minimised by understanding the underlying legal frameworks that regulate business enterprises.

The programme gives business executives the knowledge and skills to mitigate legal risks, ensure compliance with laws and regulations, negotiate and manage contracts, understand and benefit from corporate social responsibility, and resolve business-related disputes.

"An excellent, well-conceived programme that helped enhance my capacity towards legal knowledge; thereby diversifying my knowledge base. 3-days are good enough to expose audience like me to such diverse topics. The programme was a wonderful manifestation of how the field of law is immensely embedded in every sphere of any business. Excellent faculty and wonderful learning."
