Cadwalader had a great time at the Second Annual Diversity in Fund Finance (“DFF”) Summer Soiree: Suits & Soju, held at BARO by Chefs Society and co-sponsored by Cadwalader, Fried Frank and Lloyds. 

The event was bustling, with plenty of networking, delicious Korean tapas and tarot card reading by Alex Angelo. Natasha Puri (Director, Lloyds and Global Chair of DFF) presented the DFF mission statement and Fiona Cheng (Associate, Cadwalader and Committee Member of DFF) showcased BARO founder and CEO, Seolbin Park, and the incredible story behind her popular gastropub, including weathering the challenges faced by many small businesses during COVID.

In celebration of Pride month, Natasha and Fiona held a raffle to benefit The Trevor Project, which is the leading suicide prevention and crisis intervention nonprofit organization for LGBTQ+ young people. You can donate to The Trevor Project here. 

Thank you to all who joined to celebrate Korean culture, to support a fantastic minority small business owner while benefiting the DFF community. We look forward to seeing you at the next!
