Why Sponsor the 2021 Virtual Global TEC (Technology, Education and Careers) Forum?
MCCA’s Global TEC Forum (G-TEC) addresses diversity, equity and inclusion challenges in the tech industry, the latest disruptions and challenges facing the legal profession, and how emerging technologies are changing the practice of law. As we continue to adjust to a world changed by the COVID-19 crisis, G-TEC will once again be delivered as a virtual event. Last year’s virtual G-TEC was a resounding success and we doubled attendance from the previous year. We are confident that our comprehensive virtual program will continue to deliver the knowledge-rich conference experience that has supported diversity, equity and inclusion in the legal profession for over 24 years. A digital platform offers many exciting possibilities, and we hope you will join us as we rise to the challenges and opportunities of a new decade.
Our sponsors and exhibitors are integral to providing participants with a conference that continues to lift the bar. Sponsors of G-TEC have the opportunity to contribute to unique, and substantive discussions on diversity, equity and inclusion issues within the legal profession. This annual opportunity to explore new ideas and hear from leaders and experts presents the perfect forum to support MCCA’s mission and vision, connect with colleagues, and promote your organization through online sponsorship and/or exhibiting.
We welcome back our long-term supporters and look forward to engaging with new organizations. There are various ways to be involved. This document outlines the developed sponsorship packages. These packages are not fixed – so if you have ideas, let’s talk!
