The Pro Bono Wire
December 12, 2017
PBI’s 2018 Annual Conference is just a couple of months away! This year’s substantive sessions address emerging geopolitical realities, persistent challenges faced by pro bono programs, and novel and cutting-edge issues. With an unparalleled mix of law firm, in-house, and public interest leaders – and numerous opportunities for formal and informal networking – the PBI Annual Conference also offers a compelling introduction to emerging areas of public interest law and potential projects.
New to the Conference this year is a bonus day of programming for public interest attendees. On Wednesday, February 21, public interest leaders can attend offsite programming in the morning and innovative sessions in the afternoon at the Capitol Hilton specifically tailored to them.
In addition to inspiring and informative programming, we provide you with a variety of settings to meet with pro bono thought leaders and to get to know colleagues from other regions and practice settings to help expand your knowledge and your network. During our Regional Joint Networking Exchanges (Wednesday, February 21), law firm and in-house pro bono attendees can spend dedicated time with pro bono leaders from their geographic region, global home base, or those with a mutual area of interest to share experiences, explore legal needs and opportunities for collaboration, and discuss issues of particular interest to their specific communities.
