For those interested in staying current on the latest in legal technology trends and developments, the last week of January features three noteworthy legal tech conferences.
The first, Legalweek, has a longstanding history as one of the largest and most attended legal tech conferences, attracting over 6,000 attendees in its previous year. Undergoing a name change in 2017 from Legaltech New York to Legalweek, the conference covers a wide range of topics from data privacy and e-discovery to contract technology and emerging tech. This year’s conference runs from January 29th to February 1st in New York City.
Following Legalweek, the Legal Services Corporation hosts the Innovations in Technology Conference from February 1st to 3rd. The conference, a product of the LSC’s Technology Initiative Grant (TIG) Program, highlights the use of technology as a tool to enhance access to justice and legal representation for low-income individuals. The conference caters to an audience that ranges from technologists and legal aid advocates to law school professors and pro bono coordinators.
The third conference, the LawDroid AI Conference, offers the chance to explore AI in the legal field without the need to travel. Taking place on January 30th, this inaugural online conference by legal tech company LawDroid focuses on topics such as the state of AI, AI and ethics, and AI’s impact on the business of law. Legal industry analyst Jordan Furlong is announced as the keynote speaker.
The details of these conferences were compiled from an article originally published on LawNext.
