Presenting programs and conferences on electronic data discovery for the legal community is an industry in and of itself. There are almost weekly offerings, from live programs to vendor webinars to law school classes like Patrick Burke‘s course at Cardoza Law School; from our own LegalTech New York’s massive three-day extravaganza where you can see e-discovery demonstrations and attend seemingly-endless sessions on predictive coding; to gatherings at resorts in Arizona, California, and Florida, and workshops in Colorado and Minnesota. Each is different; all have their specific audiences; most do a great job. One of my favorites is the Georgetown Law Advanced E-Discovery Institute, held annually in the Washington, D.C., metropolis.

This year, Georgetown moved to The Ritz-Carlton Tysons Corner, from its previous venue at Pentagon City (aka Arlington, Va.). The decision to move was excellent, as the new venue easily handled the 600 attendees, vendors, and media. (Granted, the hotel sold out, and some had to be housed in a nearby Marriott, but that happens to the best of events.) Before I forget, I must give kudos to the Ritz-Carlton for being one of the very few conference facilities where the internet connectivity was full-strength and worked flawlessly. That may sound like a small thing, but for events that draw tech folks, all with multiple devices, that is huge — and can literally make the difference between days filled with frustration rather than productivity.
