This is in recognition of their exceptional contributions to the firm’s continuous evolution and concrete impact on the development of their respective practice groups. The promotion is effective starting August 1, 2024. Promoting the two to Partner reflects our market strategy to endorse talent, based on meritocracy, ensuring the necessary space for professionals to grow and the premises required for the firm to generate more value for its clients, partners and team members.

While heavily involved in the gambling industry from the very beginning of the reformation of the Romanian legal framework in 2015 and well-versed in dealing with all legal aspects related to the operation of gambling and gaming activities, particularly of a regulatory nature but also contentious, Andrei also specializes in anti-money laundry and new technologies, including blockchain, cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence or fintech.

Additionally, she has been instrumental in supporting start-ups in attracting financing, negotiating founder rights, and implementing complex corporate governance mechanisms. Complementing her activity, Corina has been acting as a member in technical work groups for the implementation of amendments to the legislative framework, particularly in the field of corporate and corporate governance fields.

Corina holds a LL.B Degree from the Romanian American University and a Master’s Degree in Business Administration from the Bucharest University of Economic Studies. She is also a graduate of a Mergers and Acquisitions Program rolled out by Columbia University, Columbia Business School.

Ana-Maria Baciu, Managing Partner at BACIU PARTNERS, welcomed the new partners, stating:
"My personal commitment to our clients resides in how we anticipate each step in a project, we carefully design the path to be taken from point A to as far as possible, farseeing alternatives. This requires rigorousness, as the road is not always the most convenient one, a distinct ability to find a solution and the passion for seeing things completed – in brief, a voice that reaches far and beyond, that is able to convey a message of trust, worthiness, and evolution.
For me, Andrei and Corina have this kind of voice. They have been demonstrating exceptional dedication and have accepted the responsibility to join me in taking the firm to the next level, rolling out our strategy, and enhancing the 'sound of knowledge' that defines us.
I have known Andrei for over nine years, and we have worked together on sensitive and market-shaping projects. Meeting Corina helped me take the diligence and profoundness of the legal work performed for our clients to a new level, of which I am very pleased. Together, we are committed to infusing a unique dynamic into the team. It gives me a distinct pleasure to welcome them into the partnership structure of BACIU PARTNERS."

Andrei Cosma, Partner, Gaming and Gambling Regulatory, reflecting on his promotion, shared: "It's an exciting time to be part of BACIU PARTNERS. Also, the dynamic of the sectors we focus on, including tech, entertainment, gaming & gambling is unmatchable, and I'm thrilled to continue driving innovation and client satisfaction. Our team's collaborative spirit and expertise set us apart, and I'm eager to keep pushing the boundaries."

Corina Roman, Partner, Corporate, Commercial, M&A, expressed her gratitude and vision: "I am honored to step into this new role. At BACIU PARTNERS, we hold ourselves to the highest standards of business ethics. My focus will remain on delivering exceptional value to our clients and nurturing our team's growth. Together, we will continue to question the status quo and find innovative solutions for our clients."
