Matt Homann with LexThink LLC, a legal innovation consultancy, and JoAnna Forshee with InsideLegal.com, the insider’s guide to doing business in legal technology, produced Ignite Law 2011, an interactive and thought-provoking mind-sharing event focused on “the future of law technology in six-minute increments”. Ignite Law featured 16 six-minute presentations given by the legal industry’s leading minds and innovators.  

Ignite Law was inspired by the Ignite event format; a fast-paced, high-energy evening of five-minute talks by people who have an idea. While Ignite events are now being hosted globally and focused on building local city-wide connections, Ignite Law is specific to the legal community hence the six minute presentation time, reflecting the way lawyers bill (in 1/10 hour increments).

Below is more information on the second Ignite Law, 2011.
