A few days ago, Dentons China held a successful lecture on “Legal Issues in Mining Investment in Developing Countries – African Perspective” at its Beijing office. The lecture was hosted by Yang Guisheng, head of Energy, Natural Resources and Environment Practice of our Beijing office, and lectured by Qian Xuekai, practice leader at the Beijing office. In addition to the presence of lawyers in related practices, lawyers from western China who came Dentons’ Beijing office on a training program also attended the lecture. Colleagues in across our China offices participated in the lecture through video conferencing as well.
