DirectWomen Sponsorship
DirectWomen is the only program specifically designed to identify,
develop, and support a select group of accomplished women attorneys to provide
qualified directors needed by the boards of U.S. companies while promoting
the independence and diversity required for good corporate governance.
Your sponsorship at any level makes it possible for DirectWomen to advance its ongoing mission, vision and goals through education, media outreach and public relations.
