Akerman Women's Initiative Network was featured during a CREW New York event, which focused on in-house diversity and inclusion programs that help female commercial real estate professionals excel through leadership training, mentoring and networking. Beth Zafonte discussed the value of Akerman's national initiative for female lawyers and other professionals, and her comments were published by Bisnow.
Bisnow wrote, "Beth’s firm launched its Women's Initiative Network (WIN) across 20 offices to help its female lawyers achieve success through traditional and peer mentorship, as well as professional development. As a result, Akerman has been named as one of the top firms in the United States for women lawyers in multiple rankings, and WIN has been strategic in attracting more opportunities for the firm."
