Legal Innovation & Tech Fest 2018 - Sydney | The Eventful Group | 4 June 2018 | Hilton Hotel Sydney, 488 George St, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia

The world is changing. Businesses are more demanding. Fee models are evolving. New technologies are emerging. And the pressure is on for law firms and legal businesses to operate more efficiently and effectively. Technology is disrupting (and enabling) the practice of law, which is why we are hosting the Legal Innovation & Technology Festival - a collaboration between the International Legal Technology Association (ILTA), The Legal Forecast, and The Eventful Group, and in association with the Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC Australia).
