CALOBA, in collaboration with Sidley Austin LLP, is proud to announce a new seminar series, “MEET THE LEADERS.” Senior leaders in law practice will be invited to share with CALOBA members their experiences and advices. The first installment of this series will take place at Sidley Austin’s Palo Alto office and features Sidley partner, Anne Rea, a member of Sidley’s Management and Executive Committees. This rare opportunity is made possible by CALOBA’s new board member, Mr. Yabo Lin, a Partner at Sidley.

We believe that attorneys with some practicing experiences can best take advantage from this seminar. In order to maximize the full benefits of Ms. Rea’s speech, this seminar will be open only to 40 practicing attorneys (firm or in-house). We will plan other events for law students to meet with experienced attorneys. Please stay tuned.
