Where Community Meets Opportunity
The CMCP Annual Business Conference is the premier gathering of California's legal community — bringing together law firm partners, corporate counsel, and public sector executives each year for two days of exceptional programming, meaningful connection, and celebration of the leaders shaping a more inclusive profession.
Corporate Connections
Build Meaningful Connections in Your Practice Area
Thursday, September 24 | 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM
Corporate Connections is an exclusive networking event held during the CMCP Annual Business Conference offering a unique opportunity for in-house counsel to connect with highly skilled outside counsel from top participating law firms. Through a series of dynamic, back-to-back 20-minute “speed round” interviews, participants have the chance to initiate meaningful conversations, explore potential collaborations, and lay the groundwork for strong, long-lasting professional relationships.
CMCP Awards
Celebrating Trailblazers in the Legal Profession
Friday, September 25 | 12:30 PM - 2:30 PM
This is your opportunity to spotlight the bold leaders, innovators, and champions of inclusion who are rewriting what the legal community looks like — and what it can be. The CMCP Awards celebrate the changemakers, the barrier-breakers, and the visionaries leaving a lasting legacy of opportunity for all.
We invite you to submit your nominations and help us recognize those who are truly making a difference.
