Tuesday, 2 June 2026, from 3:00pm to 6:30pm, at Loyens & Loeff, located at Parnassusweg 300 in the Amsterdam Zuidas district.
What does it take to lead a large global legal team within a company that is strongly represented across multiple continents, in a world shaped by geopolitical shifts and rapid technological and AI‑driven transformation?
In this GCN Masterclass, we welcome Linn Evans (Chief Legal Officer & Member of the Executive Committee, Ahold Delhaize). In an open and interactive interview, led by Rob Schrooten (Partner Corporate M&A, Loyens & Loeff N.V.), Linn will share practical insights from leading a global legal function during a period of significant geopolitical change and technological disruption, and reflect on the evolving role of Legal within his business.
During the session, we will explore:
- Growing into global legal leadership: what does the journey look like?
- Organisation and culture: structuring the legal function and building a strong international team culture.
- Positioning Legal within the organisation: key learnings and strategic considerations.
- Compliance and governance: shaping effective frameworks in an international environment.
- The General Counsel of the future: which capabilities will define tomorrow’s GC?
- Cost control: maintaining oversight, and how law firms can contribute through smarter collaboration, predictability and efficient delivery.
This GCN Masterclass will be practical and highly interactive, providing ample room for questions and exchange with fellow GCs. We will conclude with an informal networking drink.
