Join us for a raw, unfiltered discussion of what it means to belong to an ethnic minority group in the legal profession today. Our panellists - lawyers from across the legal industry - will share their personal journeys, reflecting on how their heritage and background have shaped their path into and through the world of law.
From navigating unspoken cultural expectations and tackling unconscious bias, to finding mentors, building community, and confronting the reality of underrepresentation at senior levels, this panel will provide a unique insight into the lived experience of being an ethnic minority in the legal space.

The discussion will also explore whether diversity and inclusion initiatives are truly working to elevate ethnic minorities in law - and what still needs to change. Whether you are aspiring to enter the profession or already building your legal career, this is a vital conversation about identity, ambition, and what it takes to succeed while staying true to yourself.
