The Law Society Competition Section Advisory Committee held a panel discussion on the topic of diversity and inclusion in Competition law, hosted by Hogan Lovells, on Tuesday 1 October 2024.
Last year the Competition Section Advisory Committee held a drinks reception for members of the profession to come together to celebrate ethnic diversity in the profession. This year we wished to delve deeper into the subject of diversity and inclusion, looking particularly at practical initiatives that can support the Competition community to grow and thrive as a diverse and inclusive profession.
This event was an opportunity for the Competition Section and the broader Competition community to come together and hear from those involved in practical initiatives that seek to attract, nurture, and retain the widest possible talent pool. The panel discussion was followed by drinks and nibbles.
Speakers:
Lee Higgins: Founder, Diverse Talent Networks
Chris Hutton: Partner, Hogan Lovells
Carolann Edwards: Managing Director, Workplace Psychology
Jessica Lennard: Chief Strategy and External Affairs Officer, CMA
