The Annual ABA TECHSHOW is coming up March 13-15 in Chicago.  We recently teamed with Larry Smith, Executive Director of ABA’s Law Practice Management Section, to put on a webinar to shed some light on the audience of the show, as well as the many improvements and changes to the show for 2008. Some notable changes for 2008…

• One major change is the location – for years the show has been held at the Sheraton Chicago, but this year it has been moved to the Hilton’s Flagship hotel, the Hilton Chicago on Michigan Avenue.
• Friday’s lunch will be a plated event and will host the winners of the James I. Keane Memorial Awards.  The awards will give recognition to law offices or legal organizations that have developed legal service innovations delivered over the Internet.
• We will be producing a Legal Media Panel with the ABA LPM at TECHSHOW.  This is an excellent opportunity to get in front of editors from the major legal publications.  Get your booth setup early on Wednesday so you can be there at 3pm!  There will be a media and faculty reception immediately following at 4pm.
• ABA has added TECHSHOW After Dark Thursday night reception – In the Hilton Chicago’s Grand Ballroom – food, drinks, networking, music and dancing.

Below is a copy of the presentation in case you weren’t able to attend the webinar…
