  • Herbert Smith Freehills Becomes Founding Signatory to the Charter for Black Talent in Finance and the Professions
    HERBERT SMITH FREEHILLS BECOMES FOUNDING SIGNATORY TO THE CHARTER FOR BLACK TALENT IN FINANCE AND THE PROFESSIONS 30 October 2020 | UK Firm news Herbert Smith Freehills has been announced as one of the founding signatories to a first-of-its-kind initiative, developed to increase representation of Black people in senior positions across legal and other professional services companies in the UK. Created by barrister Harry Matovu QC, the Charter commits firms to creating and maintaining an environment where Black talent can be identified, developed and promoted for the benefit of individuals and their organisation. It also commits signatories to support the recruitment of Black employees and their development and progression into senior roles by focusing on the entire executive pipeline. Commenting on Herbert Smith Freehills’ commitment to the Charter, Alison Brown, executive partner, says: "This has been an extraordinary year and one which it has become abundantly clear that action needs to be taken to redress the imbalances that have been allowed to persist in so many business environments. No marketplace can succeed in the long term if it fails to reflect the communities which it serves and the legal sector is no exception. Earlier this year we outlined ten actions for change to highlight our commitment to create a safe, supportive and respectful environment across the firm and the profession. We are proud to be one of the founding signatories of this Charter and are determined to ensure opportunities to attract and retain talent from Black and minority ethnic groups build an environment where everyone feels valued." The Charter outlines eight pledges that signatories to it will adhere to.

  • Glimmer of Hope in a Difficult Time: Victoria Mataczynski
    GLIMMER OF HOPE IN A DIFFICULT TIME: VICTORIA MATACZYNSKI 08 September 2020 | Alumni Profile It sounds like a miracle product: eco-friendly, biodegradable in seawater, fluid-repellent, strong, adaptable, sterilisable, reuseable and customisable into different applications. No wonder that this material – called BioHastalex and derived from graphene – could serve many purposes as a revolutionary replacement for plastic in future. One we should all be looking out for. Victoria Mataczynski, an Australian lawyer and alumna of Herbert Smith Freehills, is a co- founder of Nanoloom, the company formed to manufacture BioHastalex. She is currently leading the company’s drive to obtain funding to enable it to start manufacturing at scale. She explains how the company came about: “BioHastalex was developed by a company called NanoRegMed and developed by Professor Alex Seifalian, a materials scientist, someone who I had met in London. “As everybody else, I was amazed by his invention and wondered why it was not being mass- produced. Alex told me of the difficulties of commercialising such a scientific product. With my background in law and head for business, I thought this was an amazing opportunity. Hence, we started Nanoloom. For us, BioHastalex is the way to go, and we can help to reduce the amount of plastic finishing up in our oceans. We are capitalising on a tide of consumer and regulatory sentiment.” Victoria has been promoting the product far and wide and received huge interest, but ultimately the commercial applications depend on seeing the product being used. “It is what people, in a material science context, call the ‘valley of death’,” Victoria continues, “the gap between the time when the innovation is created and being able to commercialise it.” That said, the opportunity is huge – for example, a number of car manufacturers have indicated that they could use BioHastalex to make car seats (a “game changer”, one said, if Nanoloom can pass the tests, which it is confident it can do).
