Vita
Julian Wantzen studied law at Georg August University in Göttingen (Germany). After successfully completing his subsequent legal training in the District of the Higher Regional Court of Dusseldorf (Germany), including working at a large international law firm in commercial law with a focus on the automotive industry, Julian Wantzen went on to obtain an LL.M. degree (focus: international law) from Victoria University of Wellington (New Zealand).
