StratEgic unity and
law2020™
Our theme for ILTA 2010 is Strategic Unity,
a concept that resonates the need for
law firms and law departments to unite
their technology with the practice of law.
These disciplines must come together
as never before in order to survive and
thrive in the future. Conference sessions
will be developed around this concept,
offering attendees ideas and options in
creating unification strategies in their own
organizations. In addition, much of the
educational program will center around
Law2020™, an ILTA multi-year, multi-platform
educational programming initiative focusing
on the ways in which law firms will have
to adapt in order to thrive over the next
decade. Sessions will center on the skills,
leadership and technologies that will allow
firms to harvest real growth from our
changing environment.

SPEakErS
ILTA conference speakers come from ILTA

nEtworking
The majority of attendees rate networking
as the most important benefit they get
from ILTA conferences. Each year, we offer
conference attendees a number of settings
in which to connect and network. From
the Communities of Interest on Sunday
afternoon through the opening reception
and throughout the week, there's something
for everyone. We even allow enough time
between sessions for you to share and discuss
your newfound knowledge further.
