DRINKS ON THE ROOF

📍 Location – KPM Hotel & Residences Rooftop Bar & Penthouse Space

With almost 100 attendees already in Berlin on Monday afternoon, we suggest KPM’s Rooftop Bar and Penthouse Space as the meeting point to share a drink and catch up. There are no firm-specific parties around the conference as every team agreed to, instead, focus on getting together at one spot: KPM’s rooftop area. The area is good for 200 people, with a diverse wine list and a menu focused on sharable plates. If you’re in town on Monday, come say Hi to your fellow counsel.
