Why should I attend the 2020 Global Technology Law Summit online?
The new Global Technology Law Summit will be a fully virtual, interactive experience with:
- Top speakers from technology companies and law firms around the world.
- Interactive small group breakout discussions.
- Robust opportunities for networking and connecting with colleagues.
Offering both in-person and virtual programs, ITechLaw is the premier provider of education and networking for global technology lawyers. This truly global event is designed with a moving timeline to ensure that all participants will be able to interact and speak with colleagues across borders.
The Global Technology Law Summit will be an interactive, discussion-based program utilizing ITechLaw's new virtual platform. Top speakers will discuss a broad overview of a topic, and then attendees will break into smaller table groups of 5-8 to discuss the topic in greater depth. Each table will host a different topic for discussion. Attendees will be able to move freely from table-to-table as they choose. This creates a truly interactive experience and all you need to do is show up to a breakout table, no pre-registration required!
