Dentons is proud to support the Mining & Investment Latin America Summit (MILA), taking place in Peru, where Dentons recently combined with Gallo Barrios Pickmann, one of the country’s top firms.

Taking place on October 23-24, this year’s summit will be focused on new investment opportunities, alternative financing options and regulatory changes within the mining industry, and will host an audience of more than 600 delegates from across Latin America and around the world, including miners, investors and financiers.

Dentons will be represented at the two-day conference by a number of the Firm’s Mining group partners including Luis Abundio Maldonado Ayala of our Guatemala City office, and Fernando Pickmann, Mario Chirinos and Pilar Olaechea of our Peru office, and Bernardo Cárdenas and James Valdiri of our Bogotá office. In addition, Bernardo and Fernando will be speaking.

“I am pleased to be attending this event as a member of the Dentons team for the first time,” said Fernando Pickmann. “Announced in June of this year, the combination of our firms gives Gallo Barrios Pickmann's clients access to the experience and talents of thousands of lawyers working from more than 60 countries on six continents. Similarly, Dentons' existing global clients will have direct access to our talented lawyers in Lima, Peru's capital.”

“This event provides a wonderful opportunity for miners to make meaningful connections with investors,” said Bernardo Cárdenas. “I’m eager to be a part of the discussions around mining investment and strategies in efficiency in Latin America, and look forward to moderating a panel addressing the Colombian gold and copper mining industry.”
