This year, Legaltech New York is the focal point of the newly-created event “Legalweek, The Experience.” Announced in early November, the expanded program features content and events not only for the usual audience of legal technology professionals, but an expanded platform that includes legal marketing, women in legal, and executive forums.

Now, ALM has announced keynote speakers intending to bring together those disparate groups. On Dec. 8, the media company (of which Legaltech News is a part) announced that futurist Andrew McAfee will be the opening keynote speaker, while ABC television host and journalist Sunny Hostin will lead a discussion with legal leaders on the future of the industry. Both sessions will take place on Jan. 31 at the New York Midtown Hilton.
