MoFo is proud to have sponsored the 2024 NAPABA Convention, which was held on November 7–10, 2024 in Seattle, Washington. The NAPABA Convention is an annual gathering of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) attorneys, judges, law professors, and law students, bringing meaningful insights, networking opportunities, and perspective to the legal community.
Our firm was well represented at the convention by several of our distinguished attorneys, who participated in various panels and discussions:
- Bonnie Lau, Partner | Antitrust and co-chair of NAPABA’s Women’s Leadership Network, shared her perspective on two panels: “Go Network They Say: But what exactly is ‘networking’?” and a fireside chat with Michele Lee, GC of Pinterest, regarding how perfectionism has impacted their career paths.
