Overview


SCCA Legal Eagle Challenge is Singapore's first in-house counsel competition for law students and is back for its Fourth year. Participants will again assume the role of a General Counsel in a realistic simulation of the work done by in-house counsels every day.


Technology is very much part of our daily lives. What happens when your company receives a threat from an anonymous hacker to release data unless a ransom is paid? Join us on this exciting journey as you will wear the hat of the General Counsel of a fictional hotel company and advise the board on cybersecurity issues and crisis management.
