A panel of general counsel will be quizzed on their experience of interacting with business development teams. They will be asked to identify occasions when value has been added to their relationship with their advisers. For example, does it help to have BD representatives at pitch meetings? What would GCs like to see more of from BD teams, and are there occasions when more harm is done than good?
