Commercial law firm CMS Hasche Sigle has again invited entries for the CMS Hasche Sigle Prize which
is funded with EUR 5,000. The prize is awarded annually for academic research (dissertation or
post-doctoral thesis) in the field of company and corporate law.
Legal trainees, newly qualified lawyers, lawyers and academics who work at a German
university are asked to submit their work by 20 December 2006. The work must have been officially
accepted, is to be published or has already been published in 2006.
Dr Franz-Jörg Semler, partner at CMS Hasche Sigle's Stuttgart office and a member of the
prize jury, said "The quality of the work submitted in past years has been impressive. With the CMS
Hasche Sigle Prize we are delighted to be able to make a contribution of our own to promote young
academics in the field of corporate law."
Applications should be sent together with a copy of the work and first and second opinions to
Dr Franz-Jörg Semler, Schöttlestrasse 8, 70597 Stuttgart.
The team of corporate lawyers at CMS Hasche Sigle comprises some 180 lawyers and is one of
