Denver attorney Scot Anderson, a partner at Davis Graham & Stubbs LLP, and I met yesterday. Over the course of the last year, Scot and I have met occasionally to discuss the major issues of the day involving natural resources development in the international arena.Mr. Anderson, a long-time friend of the DU graduate program community, is one of the leading natural resources development attorneys in North America. Before joining DG&S in Denver he worked for Arco in London for four years. His work has frequently takes him to Latin America as well as Canada.
Talking to Scot is a great pleasure since he is extremely knowledgeable about many aspects of developing natural resources and is in touch with the issues that practitioners face today.
One of his upcoming projects is to take on the role as vice chair of the Lex Mundi Energy and Natural Resources Practice Group. Lex Mundi is a prestigious global association of law firms. In this role, Scot will be working with many of the world's great law firms and the attorneys in those firms who specialize in energy and natural resources.
Scot and his law firm handle many different types of energy law related issues, and it's worth noting that several DU students have interned at Davis Graham & Stubbs.
It is worth calling Scot Anderson to your attention since he is the type of individual who is making things happen in the natural resources development sector. And he's in Denver. And that's great for me and the program more broadly since he is exactly the type of person who I consult to stay in touch with what is going on in the mining and oil and gas sectors. (I blogged about Scot's role as chair of the Rocky Mountain Mineral Law Foundation International Institute in Buenos Aries in late April.)
There is no substitute in any profession for knowing who the leaders are. Scot Anderson is one of these leaders.
