A message from the Event Co-Chairs

ILTA EVOLVE is targeted at legal technology professionals and members of the broader legal profession, almost all of whom are dramatically impacted by technology and the process disruption that it drives. Attendees will span functional areas of expertise, including those in the security, information governance, generative Artificial Intelligence (AI), and innovation domains supporting the practice of law. ILTA EVOLVE will provide premier learning and networking opportunities developed by a team of industry expert peer volunteers acting as the Educational Planning Committee. ILTA EVOLVE plans to provide interactive workshops on cybersecurity and generative AI. The Educational Planning Committee intends to focus on providing unique content, such as hands-on demos of AI use cases and cybersecurity tactical practices in the legal profession, and case studies about how law firms are implementing AI and cybersecurity technology in the real world today. The three days include educational sessions equally divided into security and AI tracks.
