Who We Are
Firm Friends Alumni Yearbook 2024
Keeping you connected
Welcome to your Firm Friends yearbook
As we reflect on another remarkable year, I feel immense pride and gratitude for the continued engagement and achievements of our alumni community. Your dedication, innovation, and leadership have not only shaped your individual careers but have also significantly contributed to the legacy and ongoing success of Ashurst.
This yearbook celebrates the diverse paths that our people and alumni have taken—from pioneering sustainability initiatives and driving growth in emerging industries to championing inclusion, diversity, and belonging. Your stories of resilience, passion, and commitment to making a positive impact on the world are truly inspiring.
We are excited to share these stories with our wider Ashurst community and hope they resonate with you as much as they do with us. Please remember to stay connected with our alumni team, share your own journeys, and nominate fellow alumni who are making a difference. Your feedback and suggestions are invaluable to us.
Wishing you all health and happiness for the year ahead.
Karen Davies, Global Chair
