12月10日，国际知名财经媒体Euromoney公布了“2020年度亚洲商业法律杰出女律师”（Women in Business Law Asia Awards 2020）获奖名单。

在亚洲区域九位获提名候选人中，竞天公诚合伙人周晗烁律师最终凭借杰出的业务能力和卓越的客户口碑荣膺“生命健康领域最佳女律师”。

该奖项的首席调研员John Harrison对此次获奖作出了极高的赞誉：“Jingtian & Gongcheng’s lawyers made a good showing within the Women in Business Law Awards for 2020, having been shortlisted in two highly competitive practice areas and for one of their Rising Stars.

Hanshuo Zhou has a dedication to life sciences law that predates being in private practice, as she had previously been an in-house lawyer with Siemens. Since joining Jingtian & Gongcheng she has taken on a wide collection of clients, from multinational enterprises that develop pharmaceuticals and medical devises to next generation gene testing laboratories. The major highlight for her would be her analysis and evaluation on new regulations and the effects these regulations would have on business within the life sciences industry. This was notable on the management of human genetic resources, which was significant to the design and structure of a client’s business model and the deal structure for one of the largest private placement transactions in the medical and healthcare industry in China for 2019. 

The talented women lawyers coming out of Jingtian & Gongcheng are pushing for greatness and making their names known within their specialisms.”

 “亚洲商业法律杰出女律师”奖项旨在表彰亚洲法律界女性执业者地位的提升，并认可亚洲地区的律所在性别均衡化、创新、工作与生活平衡、公益及人才管理方面的积极贡献，是亚洲法律界的重量级奖项。在此前的提名名单中，竞天公诚有两位女律师获得最佳女律师的提名，还有一位女律师获得律师新星的提名，展现出本所女律师过硬的专业素养以及业界给予我们的高度认可。

竞天公诚全体同仁诚挚祝贺周晗烁律师获此殊荣，并对所有客户的支持和信任表示由衷感谢。竞天公诚也将一如既往以行业领先的专业化法律服务回馈客户和市场。
