Bridge to the Top 

De Brauw originated Bridge to the Top three years ago as a project to bring law students from diverse cultural backgrounds and top lawyers together. Bridge to the Top provides ambitious students with the opportunity to personally meet lawyers from leading firms. De Brauw has joined forces with the Raad voor de Rechtspraak (Council for the Judiciary) to organise this year’s project. 

Although the number of law students from diverse cultural backgrounds is growing, this is not yet reflected in large companies, universities and law firms. This project aims to close that gap. 

The kickoff will take place at the Raad voor de Rechtspraak in The Hague on 11 November 2009. At this occasion, students and lawyers will meet their future discussion partner. The 2009/2010 edition of Bridge to the Top will conclude in spring 2010.
