It is a great pleasure to announce that the Women in Business Law Awards, the preeminent industry recognition programme for women in the practice of law, is returning in 2024!
In order to participate, all that is needed is to make your nominations for leading practitioners and firm initiatives.
The Awards will recognise and celebrate the top women private practice lawyers and in-house counsels of 2023, as well as the leading firm initiatives that promoted women within the practice law throughout 2023.
Key awards dates for 2024
Category updates
During each research cycle we hear back from firms about roles, work, and practice areas that they would like to see included in the awards to recognise the accomplishments of the leading women from their firm. After two years of discussing with firms the Women in Business Law Awards has adopted two new awards to recognise leading women attorneys.
Thought Leader of the Year
This category will award individuals in each region that have taken up a strong and clear leading position in engaging with Thought Leadership activities throughout the research period. These activities include being published, being a speaker or panelist at industry conferences, or running webinars.
ESG Leader of the Year
This category will award individuals in each region that have engaged in supporting and promoting ESG related initiatives and activities within and external to the firm.
