CEAD Francisco Suárez invites the entire academic community to the Open Lecture “Do We Speak the Same Language? When Law Meets Emojis”, which will take place on November 18, at 10:30 a.m., in Room -2.4.

The session will feature Mariana Silvão, Tax Consultant at KPMG Portugal, Graduate of the Universidade Católica Portuguesa, and Master in Contract and Business Law from the School of Law of the University of Minho.

At a time when digital communication shapes both personal and professional relationships, this Open Lecture offers a reflection on the impact of emojis in the legal world: how should we interpret messages that combine text and symbols? To what extent can a simple emoji hold legal significance?
