2011 HNBA Speed Mentoring Event

Hispanic National Bar Association (HNBA), New York Region, and Chadbourne Co-sponsor Speed Mentoring and Networking Reception March 1, 2011

HNBA and Chadbourne co-sponsored a Speed Mentoring session which drew over 70 attorneys, law students and recent law school graduates. IP Partner Dennis Hopkins welcomed attendees to the Firm and introduced the event's keynote speaker, John Squires, the co-chair of Chadbourne's IP practice, who spoke about the importance of mentoring. Gamaliel Delgado and Natacha Carbajal, as representatives of HNBA, also spoke at the event.

The Speed Mentoring session allowed the attorneys, who were the mentors, the opportunity to provide academic and career advice to the mentees, who were the law students and recent graduates, in five-minute increments. After twelve "rounds," attendees had the opportunity to connect with each other during the Reception.
