The 2nd Annual International Legal Hackers Summit takes place this weekend in Brooklyn, New York. The event includes an impressive array of keynotes, panels, workshops, demos, and cultural activities from leaders of the legal hacking, legal technology and civic innovation communities. U.S. legal education has a surprisingly strong showing. Full details here.
One of the organizers, Dan Lear (@rightbrainlaw), Director of Industry Relations at Avvo, is offering weekend passes for a small number of law students interested in attending. If you drop my name, Dan will feed you and help you network, starting with the Welcome Party tomorrow night at 61 Local Cafe & Public House. If you are a law student in NYC this weekend and want to attend, please send me an email (wihender@indiana.edu) and I will connect you with Dan.
I guarantee a learning experience that will be inspiring and fun.
