In today’s digital-first legal environment, international lawyers face a dual challenge: ensuring enforceability of e-signatures in cross-border transactions and navigating complex government-mandated e-signature requirements to conduct business.

The program unites expert global in-house counsel and private practitioners to examine how electronic signatures are treated under each jurisdiction’s legal framework. Panelists will explore practical issues such as electronic powers of attorney across jurisdictions, mandatory advanced e-signatures for contracts and tax filings, authentication protocols, evidentiary standards, compliance, and best practices to support enforceability worldwide—including notarial digitalisation and cross-border recognition in real-world transactions.

Calcò Labbruzzo will contribute a Swiss perspective that is highly relevant to international trade: Switzerland’s digitalisation remains comparatively limited and differs significantly from canton to canton, which can clash with international expectations of counterparties, banks, and authorities. She will also address a frequent friction point in practice: the gap between what may be legally acceptable and what is required by internal corporate signing programs and platform workflows.

“This CLE session is crucial for business owners operating internationally,” said Dominique Calcò Labbruzzo. “Cross-border recognition is the real stress test. Notarization requirements, evidence standards, government portals, and even internal corporate signing programs can vary widely. Companies need a clear strategy—so they don’t lose time, face re-signing, or discover too late that a document won’t be recognized where it must be enforced.”
