On Oct. 17 and 18, 2024, two of the legal industry’s leading experts on knowledge management and innovation, Patrick DiDomenico, founder and CEO of InspireKM Consulting, and Joshua Fireman, president of Fireman & Company, which is owned by Epiq, the global provider of technology-enabled legal services, will present the second-annual KM&I for Legal Conference in New York City. 

The conference, which focuses on the latest developments and best practices in knowledge management and innovation in law firms and legal departments, comes at a critical juncture. In recent years, KM and innovation professionals in legal have seen their roles evolve significantly, as law firms have come to better appreciate their importance. Now, with the advent of generative AI, KM and innovation professionals are more essential than ever. 

So as the second convening of the KM&I for Legal conference approaches, DiDomenico and Fireman join LawNext to share their thoughts on the state of KM and innovation in law firms and legal organizations, including the impact AI is having on the field. They also offer a preview of what’s in store at the conference.

(He also had the opportunity there to record several interviews for this podcast with some of the speakers and vendors who attended the conference.)
