Spencer West proudly supports Women in Law & Leadership Summit New York

Spencer West is proud to sponsor the Women in Law & Leadership Summit New York, taking place on Tuesday, 29 September 2026 at the Martinique New York on Broadway.

The summit brings together senior lawyers, executives and decision-makers for a high-level discussion of leadership in the world’s most demanding market at the crossroads of commercial decisions, reputational risk, and constant scrutiny.

Spencer West is delighted to also share that partners Ariadne Clinton and Crystal Banse will both contribute to the program.

Ariadne, who specialises in securities, investment funds, corporate transactions and fintech, will join the panel discussion, “From Token to Trailblazer: Building Enduring Power for Women in Leadership”, which will examine how women can transform visibility into lasting influence, convert symbolic roles into structural power, and lead with authenticity in environments still calibrated for conformity.

Crystal, who specialises in Employment and Dispute Resolution, will lead an interactive roundtable, “The Leadership Moments Nobody Prepares You For: Judgment, Resilience, and Leading Through Uncertainty”, encouraging a candid discussion around difficult leadership moments, judgment calls, resilience and navigating uncertainty with integrity.

Looking ahead to the summit, Crystal said, “Some of the toughest moments in leadership are the ones you can’t prepare for. I’m looking forward to a candid discussion about making difficult decisions and remaining resilient when the right answer isn’t the popular one.”

Ariadne said, “I’m delighted to be part of this conversation. Enduring leadership is about more than visibility or having a seat at the table. It’s about using your voice with confidence, exercising judgment when it matters, and creating opportunities for other women to succeed.”

Through this sponsorship, Spencer West is pleased to support this important event and the wider conversation around inclusive, sustainable and authentic leadership in law.
