Law firm Browne Jacobson is partnering with BPS Birmingham Future as part of an initiative to further champion the future leaders of Greater Birmingham’s business professional and financial services sector.
The sponsorship agreement will see Browne Jacobson, one of the region’s largest law firms, support the work of the organisation which champions Greater Birmingham’s young professionals from trainees to director level by developing their business skills, establishing networking and mentoring opportunities and facilitating members to become the future ambassadors for the sector and the city.
