the idea
When legal proceedings become public, it is not only the law that matters. Media logic, expectations and reputation matter too.
At the Litigation lounge, we have been inviting lawyers from law firms and compa-nies, decision-makers and communications professionals to an exclusive exchange on current topics at the Sky Bar on Vienna’s Kärntner Straße since early 2025. The focus is on questions at the intersection of law, the public sphere and communica-tion.

The current economic environment is presenting many companies with major chal-lenges. To get the ship back on course, reducing headcount is often unavoidable. Austrian employment law provides clear rules for terminating employment relation-ships — but what needs to be considered when hundreds of employees are af-fected at once?
At the 4th Litigation Salon, employment law expert attorney Robert Prchal, Michael Janos, HR Projects Director at Stellantis, and outplacement consultant Manuela Vorwerk shared insights into best-practice examples from real-world experience.

Communication thrives on exchange. That is why we create spaces where knowledge and practice come together:

Whenever the bigger picture is at stake, it is essential to identify new trends, understand complex issues and engage with experts. At our event series “Breakfast with a View”, we invite a small group of selected stakeholders to discuss new developments in communications, business, science and society.

Litigation PR is one of our core areas of expertise. Since early 2025, we have invited legal professionals from law firms and companies, decision-makers and communications executives to the Sky Bar on Vienna’s Kärntner Strasse for an exclusive exchange on current legal issues.

Together with our friends and partners inloop, upgr8 and HiSolutions, we invite an exclusive network to join our “Cocktail with a view” event in Vienna’s k47 event location. Once a year, our guests can look forward to high-caliber keynotes, panel discussions and a lush early summer evening in one of the city’s most exclusive rooftop locations. Most recently, Ivan Krastev, Velina Tchakarova and Bernhard Pörksen provided compelling insights for the conversation that followed.
