STEM Future Lawyers’ latest virtual event is with leading law firm Bristows, which specialises in advising companies in the technology, life sciences and brands space.
The exclusive session for STEM students takes place Wednesday 25 November from 4pm to 6pm.
It features a panel of partners and associates working across Bristows’ core practice areas. All are STEM graduates who converted to law, from subjects such as biochemistry, computer science, chemistry and physics.
The speakers
Greg Bacon, patent litigation partner
Alex Denoon, regulatory partner in the life sciences sector
Naomi Hazenberg, senior associate specialising in patent litigation
Louisa Jacobs, associate in the commercial IP group
They will explain how their science backgrounds help them to advise Bristows’ roster of high-profile clients, which include start-ups and multi-nationals in the pharmaceutical, life sciences and electronics industries. Such companies seek Bristows’ advice on protecting and extracting value from their most valuable assets – their inventions.
The speakers will share too their views on the changing legal sector, which itself is evolving to accommodate developments in technology, and give their advice to the next generation of students hoping to follow in their footsteps.
After the panel session, there will be virtual networking with trainees who have transitioned from STEM degrees to law and the graduate recruitment team will be available to discuss training opportunities at the firm.
Apply to attend. You’ll be asked to submit a CV and two questions for the panel.
