Law Society BAME: speed networking event

On 27th September 2016 the Law Society is hosting a speed networking event aimed at black and minority ethnic solicitors. A number of studies have shown that networking and access to positive and visible role models is important to the development of BAME solicitors. The aim of this event is to bring BAME solicitors working in law firms together with senior BAME solicitors working in corporate in-house departments and city law firms to network.

The event and post-event networking drinks will provide ample opportunity for delegates and speakers to mingle and network.

18:00 – 18:50           Welcome and panel presentations
