3rd Annual Putting Insights Into Practice Forum

PIIP 2020: AHEAD OF THE CURVE

Data management and eDiscovery have never been more complicated thanks to new privacy laws, global data security threats, exponential data growth, and evolving standards and practices. Companies and law firms are putting in extra hours to evaluate their technology options, streamline workflows, improve access to their data, and stay compliant.

For many organizations, the challenge is not simply keeping up with developments but rising to meet them. The market is full of new tools, better tech and handy innovations to work faster and smarter. But it’s not easy to successfully manage resources while tackling thorny, unfamiliar problems and adjusting to a steep learning curve of new solutions.

Now in its 3rd year, PIIP 2020 takes an in-depth, practical look at the future of data and explores the next generation of technology, tactics, and strategies for handling data in litigation and investigations. Whether you are new to these topics or are currently facing similar issues, you’ll learn critical insights from industry leaders as they share real-world examples of what worked, what didn’t and why.

By attending PIIP 2020, you will:

  • Make better decisions about your approach to data management in all areas and stages – storage, retention, preservation, legal holds, collection, review, and production
  • Possess the tools to analyze problems in new ways using technology you already have at your disposal
  • Be prepared with leading-edge strategies for information governance, compliance, investigations, and litigation
