Description

ELSA Prague is thrilled to invite you to the 9th edition of the Winter ELSA Law School Prague, taking place from February 6 - 13, 2027, dedicated to Cybersecurity & Artificial Intelligence.

Building on the success of our previous editions, we dive back into these fast-evolving fields that are transforming the law, business, and society. WELS Prague connects cutting-edge legal regulations with real-world technical practice. You will gain valuable hands-on expertise, learn directly from industry leaders, and immerse yourself in the academic heritage of Charles University, the oldest university in Central Europe founded in 1348 by King Charles IV.

Our carefully picked social and cultural programme will take you through the beautiful cobblestone streets of the historic center, let you try authentic Czech cuisine, and immerse you in Prague’s famous nightlife.
