Tuesday — Law Firm 2020: Emerging Business and
Technology Opportunities
Rohit Talwar
Fast Future Research Ltd.
The next 10 years could see a dramatic rewriting of the law firm playbook as innovators
and entrepreneurs break from the pack to change the rules of the game. In what promises
to be a highly thought-provoking presentation, global futurist Rohit Talwar will highlight
how law firms can leverage emerging technologies coupled with new paradigm thinking
to transform everything from firm strategies and business models to the way tomorrow's
lawyer is recruited, developed and rewarded. Rohit will present the latest research findings,
technology opportunities and case examples emerging from ILTA's Legal Technology Future
Horizons Project. ILTA's Legal Technology Future Horizons Project is designed to examine
how emerging technologies could impact the design and delivery of legal services over the
next 10-15 years. The study is also exploring the resulting implications for how law firms
need to evolve the management of the IT function to address an ever-quickening pace of
technological change.
Wednesday — The Crucible Experience As a Catalyst
for Leading
Chris De Santis
Independent Consultant
As IT professionals in legal, we manage a variety of projects and initiatives in an increasingly
challenging environment. To be successful, we need extraordinary communication skills and
the ability to persuade and influence attorneys and clients, to build and lead teams, to get
buy-in for initiatives and projects, and to manage difficult situations. Let's not forget the
balancing act is performed in a high-pressure environment and while trying to be innovative
and strategic! In this unique keynote, we will participate in the crucible experience, hearing
and sharing stories, and learning specific strategies for communicating effectively and
leading teams, achieving results and influencing people.
