Speaker Bio
Daniela brings a holistic, forward looking approach to legal and regulatory risk, aligning corporate, transactional, regulatory, disputes, employment, tax, compliance, trade, IP, and governance considerations into unified execution plans. As a trusted advisor to senior leadership, she leads and inspires multidisciplinary, cross border teams, accelerates decision making where regions and regulatory frameworks intersect, and ensures that emerging risks are addressed early—before they escalate into operational or reputational threats. Her pragmatic, commercially grounded leadership enables global teams to move faster with confidence, turning legal complexity into a strategic advantage and positioning the legal function as a driver of innovation, resilience, and sustainable growth. Drawing on deep experience in highly regulated industries, especially financial services, aviation, technology, energy, entertainment, and retail, Daniela regularly helps clients align legal strategy with business priorities across compliance, disputes, trade and sanctions, employment, privacy, investigations, spin offs, restructures, acquisitions, antitrust, corporate, and operational workstreams.
