Lawyers Weekly and principal partner Mary Technology are delighted to launch this year’s Women in Law Forum.
Now in its fifth year, the annual Women in Law Forum returns to champion positive change for women in law and beyond.
Hosted in conjunction with principal partner Mary Technology, the Women in Law Forum is a practical, two-stream event, designed to deliver the strategic tools and leadership insights needed to thrive, moving past the buzzwords to focus on real professional development, wellbeing, flexible work, law firm operations, and the career milestones that matter.
By attending this event, you will gain the practical tools and strategies needed to drive progression, challenge the status quo, and promote equality across the legal profession.
The forum will take place on Thursday, 12 November, at the Crown in Melbourne. Click here to buy tickets.
Throughout the event, leading women will share personal experiences and anecdotes, as well as practical, informative insights into how to create a more inclusive and equitable legal professional future.
The jam-packed agenda will unpack how women are reforming business models and redefining success, examine the role of technology in equality, and address homogenous attitudes towards women in law.
Speakers will also reflect on the state of affairs for leadership and career advancement, what constitutes operational excellence, and innovative ways of practising in the current climate.
The sessions include:
Commenting on the forum, principal partner Mary Technology’s co-founder, Rowan McNamee, said: “Our company carries the name of my aunt, Mary McNamee, a family law barrister in Melbourne. So, partnering with the Women in Law Forum means something to us.
“The forum does what she did every day: back the women who make this profession what it is and clear the way for those coming up behind them. It recognises their work, their leadership, the ground they’ve won.
“We’re proud to be principal partner, and glad to be back for 2026.”
Don’t miss the opportunity to connect with a dynamic group of like-minded professionals, leading public figures, and social advocates at this year’s event!
