When Recruiting Becomes an Experience: The First Legal Escape Room for Legance

đź§© An M&A closing, a challenge to solve, two teams of law students, and an immersive scenario built from scratch.
Together with Legance, we made it happen: a legal-themed Escape Room where recruiting turned into a meaningful and memorable experience.

From Need to Concept: Understanding Before Creating

Every collaboration starts with deep listening. With Legance, we first immersed ourselves in their unique way of looking at talent, work, and organizational culture.

👉 The goal wasn’t just to “hire the best”, but to attract people who truly resonate with the firm’s values and mindset.

That’s how the idea came to life: an interactive and thought-provoking Escape Room where logic, legal thinking and teamwork were all part of the journey — a tailor-made simulation of an M&A deal.

A Simulation That Felt Real

During the event, two teams of fifth-year law students from the University of Milan, Bocconi, and Cattolica stepped into the shoes of legal advisors for both the buy-side and sell-side.

📑 Realistic documents, negotiation dilemmas, unexpected twists — all guided by Legance professionals who mentored and assessed the participants throughout the session.
💡 This wasn’t just a skills test. It was a live lab of leadership, strategic thinking, and collaboration.

Not a Ready-Made Format. A Designed-For-You Experience.

At Futureberry, we don’t sell plug-and-play formats. We design experiences.

And this one was crafted to reflect Legance’s identity — with every puzzle, narrative element, and interaction reinforcing their culture and positioning.

🌟 We also brought that special something — the Futureberry magic — that transforms a structured exercise into an unforgettable story.

Recruiting? Yes — But Make It Experiential.

This event showed that recruiting can be a moment to express your culture, while also observing how candidates respond to real-world challenges in an engaging way.

If you’re also looking for new ways to attract talent who truly align with your values, we’d love to co-create something bold and different with you.
