Conference-Sponsored Receptions are planned throughout the year across the country. The Conference invites corporate counsel and other corporate decision-makers to meet Conference members in a comfortable atmosphere with the aim of establishing productive business relationships.

Conference-Sponsored Seminars are held throughout the year at various conferences, meetings, and symposia in order to increase the visibility of the Conference and its members and to provide information to the legal and corporate communities.

The Conference Speakers’ List is maintained to provide a resource of ready, willing, and able minority partner speakers in a broad variety of legal subject areas. The Conference Speakers’ List is provided to the American Bar Association and other organizations seeking authoritative speakers for conferences, seminars, etc.
