Our Hong Kong office partnered with the Asia Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (ASIFMA), a regional trade association, to co-host “Maximizing Outcomes in Upcoming Asia Restructurings,” a senior level industry summit on the topic of restructurings throughout Asia and the potential impact on the global economy.

“The Asia restructuring conference gave me the opportunity to work with a distinguished group of 50 speakers, as well as our partners and business development team worldwide to deliver an impactful and informative conference. We extended the reach of the program through a video series and Q&As published across our digital platforms.”

Providing access to a library of foundational Master Limited Partnerships (MLPs) documents, thought leadership and Latham expertise, our MLP site is intended to assist members of the business and financial communities in learning more about the MLP structure.

Building Business Resources

“Creating a one-of-a kind portal of information for all things related to MLPs was quite an undertaking, but it was remarkably rewarding. Our portal provides a point of reference on MLPs and is used daily by our team, our clients and across the industry.”

Enhancing Marketing Opportunities Through Video

“Creating our ‘Word of the Day’ video series was a great experience. We selected very specific legal jargon from the M&A world and explained it in layman’s terms. It was a wonderful opportunity to work with our lawyers, our in-house video team and our communications group to create a very successful video series that garnered a lot of attention, aiding in downloads of our app and usage of our web-based directory.”Elyse LazarukPractice Development Manager – M&A/Private Equity

“Our lawyers work on matters that

are significant for their clients, often with impact on major industries and global markets. Helping to build relationships between our thought leaders and the news reporters and editors who tell these stories makes every day different and intriguing, which personally offers me unique opportunities to learn and grow professionally.”Frank PizzurroSenior Public Relations Manager

Developing Strategic Communications

The Women’s Forum for the Economy and Society held their 2013 Global Meeting in Deauville, France, from October 16-18. In addition to sponsoring the event, a number of partners and associates from around the world joined a series of panels to discuss hot button issues.

“I feel fortunate to be able to work closely with so many of the immensely talented women lawyers throughout the firm for the annual Women’s Forum in France. We collaborated to develop session topics and engagement opportunities to enhance our participation in this very important global event. Executed as a part of our Women Enriching Business (WEB) program, it proved to be a tremendous opportunity to highlight and support the sophisticated work of our women lawyers and clients.”

The Pro Bono Annual Review offers a glimpse into our pro bono program and community service initiatives, through photos, infographics, quotes, and descriptions of matters.

“As the project’s graphic designer, my contribution to the report was to visually communicate the firm's global humanitarian achievements. This year’s theme Doing Good, Hour by Hour provided me with the starting point for the graphics narrative. Inspired by world time zones, I created a series of clocks to represent the significant number

of pro bono hours that Latham & Watkins puts in from sunrise to sunset, all over the world. It’s always a rewarding experience for me to apply my skills to showcase all the meaningful work the firm provides.”Andrea VillafañeGraphic Designer

Pro Bono Annual Review

“Bringing attention to the people behind the tremendous work being done throughout the firm globally is wonderfully rewarding.
