The Hong Kong Pro Bono Roundtable held its final meeting of the year on 7 November 2024, kindly hosted byBloomberg.

The Roundtable was a first-of-its-kind event held in conjunction with Pro Bono SG and coordinated by Bloomberg across both jurisdictions. Participants in Hong Kong heard from fellow professionals in person as well as those joining remotely from Singapore.

The discussion covered various topics, including the approaches to pro bono in both Hong Kong and Singapore, pro bono initiatives for artists and creatives in Singapore, cross-border pro bono projects that lawyers can engage in, and navigating sensitive legal landscapes. Alan Schiffman and Aaron Chan led the moderated discussion from the Hong Kong side. 

Many thanks to Pro Bono SG and Bloomberg for collaborating on this quarter’s Roundtable. We look forward to developing more valuable discussions on pro bono next year.
