The College of Law Practice Management (COLPM) is hosting their Annual Futures Conference this Friday and Saturday at the Chicago-Kent College of Law. InsideLegal has been partnering with the COLPM for the past few years and their Futures Conference (which was closed to Fellows only until recent years) is the best event for networking and gathering insight from all areas of legal practice management (management, marketing, tech, pricing, HR, facilities management). We often call the COLPM "the best kept secret in legal" and an excellent way to meet the industry's true thought leaders - including COLPM President, Ron Staudt; Friday's keynote Stephen Mayson; and Ann Lee Gibson and Jordan Furlong who are both leading Friday's TED sessions.
We've arranged for the COLPM to offer a few discounted one-day passes for InsideLegal followers that are interested in checking out both the COLPM and the Futures Conference. The one-day rate is $250 (InsideLegal full conference registration is $495). If you will be - or can be - in Chicago this Friday, check it out. You won't regret it.
