The Maryland State Bar Association is celebrating 125 years this year.  As co-chairs of MSBA’s 125th Anniversary Committee, we are thrilled to embark on a journey to deliver a slate of stimulating and inspiring programs and events that we hope will engage the whole of the legal profession to think deeply about our past and plan boldly for our future.

We are reaching out to you – as experts and thought-leaders in the legal profession in your own right – for your program ideas and speaker suggestions so that we can be inclusive in our planning and create an experience for all attorneys in Maryland that is truly thought-provoking, meaningful and exceptional.

Please refer to the RFP below to get more information on what we have envisioned. We anticipate planning and programming to last over the course of 18 months. While we will be collecting your thoughts and ideas on a rolling basis, first priority will be given to suggestions made by September 15, 2021. To submit your thoughts, ideas and speaker suggestions, please go here:  https://www.msba.org/125th-thought-leadership-series/.  Because we expect to receive more suggestions than there are spots for programming, we hope to incorporate as many as possible into our work, but do not guarantee it. You can also send any suggestions to us at anniversary@msba.org.

Thank you for your time and consideration.  We look forward to receiving your feedback!
