Partners, Daphne Lainson and Nancy Pei, attend the ChIPs Global Summit in Washington, D.C.
Smart & Biggar partners, Daphne Lainson and Nancy Pei, will be in Washington from September 25-27, 2019 to participate in the 8th annual ChIPs Global Summit for women in tech, law and policy. The theme of this year’s summit is “Women Changing the Future”.
Nancy and Daphne will connect with industry peers and attend sessions hosted by legal trailblazers, tech disruptors, female innovators and CEOs. Panels will showcase women shaping the future of autonomous vehicles, top academics who are disrupting lawyering, biotech and pharma experts who are changing the future of medicine and inspiring women who are driving social change for underrepresented minorities.
Past summit headline speakers have included former Acting U.S. Attorney General Sally Yates, NPR’s Nina Totenberg, Fortune’s Pattie Sellers, elected officials and members of the judiciary, including Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
Each year ChIPs draws more than 550 senior-level women in technology, policy, private practice, corporations, government, academia and beyond. ChIPs’ mission is to advance and connect women in technology, law and policy, and seeks to accelerate innovation through diversity of thought, participation and engagement.
