Shareholder and Chair of the Vedder Price Diversity Committee Jeanah Park has been selected as a female Mentor to participate in Chicago Innovation’s Women Mentoring Co-op program. The program’s mission is to empower, connect and propel female innovators in Chicago through two six month cohorts and on-on-one discussions with selected mentees to help them achieve their personal and professional goals.

The Mentor/Mentee community includes over 400 female innovators across Chicagoland that have access to Co-op only events, lunch and learns and private receptions aimed at helping mentees accelerate their careers.

“Learning from successful women leaders has been an indispensable part of my growth as an attorney and leader,” said Ms. Park. “I’m thrilled to be a part of the Chicago Innovation Women Mentoring Co-op to give back and lend my support and experience to mentees in all phases of their careers.”
Vedder Price is a proud supporter of Chicago Innovation and its mission to empower the Chicago innovation ecosystem by educating, connecting, and celebrating innovators. “We’ve been involved with Chicago Innovation and sponsors of their annual Chicago Innovation Awards each year, counseling inventors, business owners and innovators in bringing their ideas to life,” said Intellectual Property Shareholder Angelo Bufalino. “Jeanah is a great addition to another meaningful program that CI provides and we’re excited to assist more female innovators through her new mentoring role.”
