Louis is Counsel on the Commercial team in Brussels. Louis is specialised in regulatory and compliance in the fields of consumer and regulated products. He is a member of the Commercial team in Brussels and heads our local Foods & Beverages practice.
As a core member of our Retail team, Louis advises companies on compliance products and services at all stages of their lifecycle under Belgian and EU law.
He also assists clients on strategic marketing and advertising communications as well as on consumer and unfair competition matters, including their communications with regulators.
Within the firm, he is part of our International Urban Dynamics Team as Retail Sector Champion and has a particular interest in our subgroup "The Future of Living" which is a fast evolving regulated topic in line with his core practice.
I find it thrilling to advise client on their consumer products strategy as this sector is getting increasingly regulated in an EU environment. I also believe that the best solutions can be found by gathering opinions from people with different background, which is why I'm also active in our Diversity and Inclusion initiatives.
