29 September 2011 - Gide Loyrette Nouel becomes a sponsor at the Musée du Louvre:

International law firm Gide Loyrette Nouel is supporting the Musée du Louvre as a sponsor of the "The Forbidden City at the Louvre - Chinese Emperors and French Kings" exhibition from 29 September to 9 January 2012.

In sponsoring this exhibition which features 130 major works on loan from the Forbidden City Museum, Gide Loyrette Nouel wishes to display its support for a landmark event in terms of cultural and diplomatic dialogue between two great nations.

Pierre Raoul-Duval, the Firm's Senior Partner, states, "Gide Loyrette Nouel is decidedly international in its outlook and has always endeavoured to understand each country's own distinctive cultural, legal, economic and political background. We are proud to be partners of this exceptional and unique exhibition which binds France and China, both countries of strategic importance for our Firm."

Present in China since 1987, Gide Loyrette Nouel was one of the first foreign law firms authorised to practise in the country. Today, over 10% of the Firm's lawyers work out of three offices in Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong.

As an international law firm active in 15 countries, Gide Loyrette Nouel is delighted to be lending its support to the Musée du Louvre, an unrivalled showcase for the treasures of the world.
