Catapult Growth Partners, the organizer of Gro Pro, the preeminent professional services forum, and Momentum, the organizer of FirmThink 2020, the top-level strategy meeting for thought leaders, innovators and critical thinkers from within and outside the legal industry, announced today that they will be merging their events and create Gro Pro 20/20, the leading event for professional services executives.
- New York, NY (1888PressRelease) November 22, 2014 - NEW YORK - Bringing together executive leadership from law firms, financial institutions, accounting, management consulting, and other professional services firms to discuss the myriad of trends and challenges disrupting these established industries, Gro Pro 20/20 will offer participants the best of today's thinking as participants are immersed in a two-day exploration of how to not only survive, but thrive in today's rapidly changing business environment.
Previous attendees to both Gro Pro and FirmThink 2020 have included Managing Partners, Practice Leaders, CMOs, CIOs, COOs, CFOs and other business heads from some of the largest and fastest growth professional firms including Akin Gump, Baker McKenzie, Cravath, EY, Freshfields, Grant Thorton, King & Spalding, KPMG, Morrison Foerster, PwC and The Rockefeller Foundation, among others.
Doug Johnson, Founder and President of Catapult Growth Partners and current Interim Chief Strategy & Growth Officer of nationally-ranked law firm, Drinker Biddle, founded Gro Pro several years ago with the objective to bring together leadership from all professional services sectors to to highlight, brainstorm and share solutions to complex issues in competition, business development and marketing. Similarly, FirmThink 2020, developed by Ben Greenzweig, Co-Founder and Co-CEO, Momentum, was created to attract an elite group of law firm executives and provided an unsurpassed education and networking opportunities that fostered a true peer learning environment.
"While some event companies constantly look to find ways to spin off, roll out and repeat programs, we have taken the opposite approach and decided that by consolidating these two successful events, we're able to create an even more valuable experience while respecting the professional scheduling and financial demands of the attendee community," remarked Greenzweig.
Both Mr. Johnson and Mr. Greenzweig will serve as Chair Emeritus for the Gro Pro 20/20 Advisory Board comprised of several hand picked professional services executives.
Production is well underway in the development of Gro Pro 20/20's themes and speakers and the initial roster of topics and facilitators will be announced shortly. Carrying over from FirmThink 2020 will be the adoption of the Chatham House Rule to ensure that both speakers and attendees alike can feel free to share their thoughts openly and confidentially. The event is scheduled to take place June 22-23, 2014 in New York City. More details can be found at www.gropro2020.com
