Need Help on Handling Social Media, Cloud and Mobile Data Sources? Check Out this Conference: eDiscovery Trends

Last week, we announced that eDiscoveryDaily is a new Education partner of EDRM. University of Florida Levin College of Law is another EDRM Education partner and will be teaming up with EDRM to host the 3rd Annual UFLaw and EDRM Electronic Discovery Conference on Friday, March 27.

The conference is focusing its attention this year on litigation involving social media, the cloud, and mobile devices. Data from a multitude of social platforms and mobile devices (such as your automobile, Fitbit, iPhone, smart TV and even your thermostat) capture our movements, our moods, and the everyday moments of our lives. That data is stored everywhere – on our devices, at remote locations, and in the cloud. This critical information can make or break any litigation and investigation.

The event will take place in Holland Hall at the University of Florida, Levin College of Law, and will be streamed online as well. It runs from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm Eastern time. George Socha, co-founder of EDRM and William Hamilton, Partner, Quarles & Brady are co-chairs and there are a number of knowledgeable presenters, including Craig Ball and Monica Bay. 6.5 general CLE credits are available for attendees. Here’s a link to the agenda.

The entire day-long conference is available online for $99, or in person for $199. EDRM members receive a discounted rate of $45 for online or $99 for in person attendance (select “Certified Conference Friends” at time of registration). The Conference is completely free to all employees of federal and state governmental agencies, judges and judicial staff, students, and academics. Click here to register.
