I spoke with Olivia Mockel, the Chief Brand and Market Strategy Officer at SurePoint Technologies, Debbie Foster, the CEO of Affinity Consulting Group, and Laura Wenzel, the Global Marketing & Insights Director at iManage. The three companies are part of a consortium that supported a new market research report featuring the perspectives of midsize law firm leaders called "Midsize Law Firms Are Balancing Potential and Pitfalls in Charting an Unpredictable Path Forward." We discussed how chief financial officers, chief operating officers, chief information officers, and executive directors are approaching generative AI, data and financial intelligence, technology adoption, and training to help drive their firms into a new era of legal services.

I spoke with Kevin Klein, Co-Founder of LegalTech Connect and Head of Content & Programming at the KM&I for Legal Conference, and Patrick DiDomenico, who founded InspireKM Consulting and KM&I, and is now Co-Founder at LegalTech Connect. We discussed the convergence of KM&I and LegalTech Connect, the evolution of law firm knowledge management and innovation, and how conversations about KM and AI will drive the legal profession forward.

I spoke with Tom Martin, the founder and CEO of LawDroid, an Adjunct Professor teaching Generative AI and the Delivery of Legal Services at Suffolk Law School, and a co-founder of the American Legal Technology Awards. We discussed the most exciting opportunities AI is creating for lawyers, best practices for persuading AI skeptics, the ethical and practical guardrails lawyers should consider, and the objective of the American Legal Technology Awards.
