Țuca Zbârcea & Asociații and The Legal 500 launch the third edition of the GC Powerlist Romania
GC Powerlist highlights the world’s most innovative and influential general counsels who made a demonstrable impact on their team, company or industry through innovative approaches to their everyday work. GC Powerlist Romania is brought by the Legal 500 and the law firm Țuca Zbârcea & Asociații. This year, the launch event also benefited from the support of Audi Romania.
GC Powerlist Romania 2025 features a distinguished list of 132 general counsels, selected further to a comprehensive research process, which includes nominations, background research and interviews conducted by Legal 500 journalists.
On this occasion, Allan Cohen, Senior Research Director GC Powerlist Series at Legal 500, said: ”On behalf of The Legal 500, I am pleased to introduce the GC Powerlist Romania 2025. This edition recognises general counsel and their in-house legal teams who play a key role in shaping Romania’s business landscape. These professionals not only provide high quality legal advice, but also influence corporate strategies, streamline processes, and contribute to their organisations’ success, helping them navigate through regulations, adopt new technologies, manage risks, and support and drive change. The GC Powerlist Romania 2025 highlights those who combine legal expertise with practical leadership.”
Further, Ștefan Damian, Deputy Managing Partner at Țuca Zbârcea & Asociații added: “Today we have yet another opportunity to express our gratitude and celebrate the vital contribution of in-house lawyers to the development and sustainable growth of Romania’s corporate world. It is the right time to highlight their efforts, talent, vision and creativity in managing internal legal processes, often complex and challenging, as well as to underscore the increasingly prominent role that they play in the shaping of the business landscape in Romania. We congratulate all honourees included in the GC Powerlist Romania and we are confident that more and more General Counsels and Chief Legal Officers will be recognised in future editions.”
Also, Gabriela Popescu, General Manager, Ad Interim, Microsoft Romania, Moldova & CIS delivered a keynote address about the evolving role of the general counsel and the key factors that underpin a successful transition from a GC position to that of a general manager.
