Legalweek 2023 starts Monday! Here’s part 1 of a Legalweek 2023 preview, starting with activities of eDiscovery Today Educational partners!

Legalweek 2023 will be conducted March 20th thru March 23rd. Once again, it will be held at the New York Hilton Midtown in New York City. It is a fully in-person event again this year. Here’s the detailed agenda for the conference (on which I generated a word cloud of topics last week).

With so many eDiscovery Today educational partners, I thought I would do something different this year and highlight their activities as part of the first part of the Legalweek 2023 preview.
