For the fifth consecutive year, the Association of Corporate Counsel - St. Louis Chapter (ACC STL) received the 2021 Gold Chapter of Distinction by the Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC), which is an award bestowed on the best chapters in the United States.

The award recognizes an individual chapter’s accomplishments in areas including programming; membership recruitment; diversity, inclusion and equity; and governance and operations. 

“This is an incredible honor for the St. Louis chapter, and it is a reflection of the dedication, support, and commitment of our members. The last two years have brought unique opportunities to engage with our members. Our board frequently asks members what they want from their chapter, and we implement their advice into innovative programming, CLEs and social gatherings,” said Sven Fickeler, 2021 chapter president, and senior corporate counsel for Bunzl Distribution NA .

In addition to the Gold Chapter of Distinction awards, the ACC STL has also received the ACC 2020 Innovation Award for its Diversity & Inclusion Internship Program, and the ACC 2018 Membership / Recruitment Award.
