About the department

The research and teaching of the Department of Commercial Law are deeply embedded in the fabric of business practice, providing a solid legal foundation for shaping responsible, resilient, and globally competitive business leaders.

We do more than teach legal provisions — we work hand in hand with students, businesses, and society to explore the future of the commercial world.

The Department possesses deep expertise in the legal frameworks that support modern commerce and shape business practice. We are committed to empowering future leaders with the knowledge and skills to understand how law underpins and regulates business activity. By combining academic excellence with practical relevance, we contribute to the steady growth of enterprises and foster a more informed and mature commercial community.

This represents a shift from passive adaptation to active shaping. We not only teach students how to comply with existing laws, but also, through our research and public engagement, play an active role in influencing and shaping future legal systems. Our unique structure bridges the gap between academic theory and business practice, ensuring that the knowledge we provide is both rigorous and directly applicable — offering a structured, practice-oriented legal roadmap for individual career development and corporate strategy.

At the same time, we embrace a forward-looking vision: leading legal transformation in the digital age. With a strong focus on emerging fields such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, and data privacy, our research and public engagement establish us as leaders in addressing the legal challenges of the digital economy and in shaping the future of commercial law.

Equally, we recognise that the future of business law must be anchored in principles of sustainability. By examining the intersection of commercial law with environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards, we contribute to building frameworks that promote ethical business practices, long-term value creation, and responsible stewardship in a rapidly evolving global marketplace.
