The Business Law Section Hybrid Spring Meeting will be held April 27-29, 2023 at the Hyatt Regency Seattle and online, and the Section is pleased to invite law students to join. Meeting registration is complimentary for law students! All you need to do is join the Business Law Section as a student, which is also free. Our hybrid format uses the latest technology to put members in the room where meetings are happening, allowing the flexibility to attend and participate in a meeting or program anywhere which is great for students far away or with schedule conflicts. Virtual attendees won’t just watch; they will be able to see who’s speaking and speak to the room as if they are there. All of this for free from the comfort of your home!
For students able to join us in person, we invite you to participate in the Law Student Scholar Program. This program is designed to help law students navigate Section Meetings and connect with practicing business lawyers to network and learn more about a career in business law. Participants in the Law Student Scholar Program receive:
- Mentorship. Each Scholar will be paired with a Section mentor who can help you navigate the Meeting and share advice for a successful career in business law.
- Professional recognition. After completing the program requirements, each scholar will receive a certificate recognizing their participation in the program. Scholars are also encouraged to list involvement in this program on their resume.
- Enhanced law school experience. Scholars will receive continued opportunities for involvement in the ABA Business Law Section to help you stand out from your peers.
The program has been designed with law students’ busy schedules in mind. Required events can be completed in 1-3 days and students are invited to attend as many days of the meeting as they’d like! While the Spring Meeting is a hybrid meeting, students will be required to attend at least 1 day in person to meet the program requirements.
To participate in the Law Student Scholar Program, students must sign-up by March 31. Follow this link to learn more and sign up today.
