PITTSBURGH – Global law firm Reed Smith today announced that it is expanding its Alumni Network program by launching a dedicated website to enhance the experience of its members. The new website is designed so that the firm’s alumni can share their news, develop their careers and find new opportunities. Through the site, alumni can network and discover a wide range of Reed Smith industry insights, events and business inclusion groups in which they can participate. Members also can keep up-to-date on developments at the firm. The site features a rich selection of CLE and CPD educational and video-on-demand materials for credit that members can access, along with a searchable directory of global alumni and current Reed Smith personnel. On the site, members also can access Reed Smith’s alumni podcast, Career Footprints, in which guest alumni share their career stories, how their time at the firm contributed to their success and their advice for early-career lawyers.

“While we have had an alumni program for years, we wanted to create more robust connections with firm alumni by showcasing and celebrating their many achievements,” Reed Smith’s Global Managing Partner Casey Ryan said. “The goal of the network is to create a real sense of community and to promote the exchange of ideas, experiences and opportunities across the group.”

The firm’s Alumni Network program is led by Senior Director of Alumni Relations Laura Karmatz, who joined Reed Smith in 2022 to expand the alumni program, promote engagement and develop the website.

“I am delighted that we have now launched our brand-new, feature-filled website,” commented Karmatz. “This is just one of a number of new initiatives underway to deepen our connection with former members of Reed Smith. We are enormously proud of what our alumni go on to achieve.”
