ILTA was founded as an organization in 1980, and incorporated in 1985. Personally, I have attended seven of the past eleven ILTACON annual events. This conference was the first one I was able to attend at the National Harbor (Maryland) location. There were two other conferences in recent years held at the Maryland location, I had missed both. Since my introduction to ILTACON, the conference is often held at a Gaylord Resort, and those locations are always scenic and picturesque. The conference has also been held in Las Vegas. The recent ILTACON’s held in Las Vegas were hosted by Caesar’s, which is always an exciting venue for the event.
The conference location changes each year, and seemingly so does the topic of conversation. While there is always a focus on eDiscovery issues, in recent years cybersecurity is an increasingly important topic at ILTACON. This year’s conference included much conversation about artificial intelligence and machine learning. In addition, advancements in auto-classification was a topic of growing interest for both law firms and corporations. I spoke with several industry experts at ILTACON this year and asked them for their opinion about what they felt was interesting about this year’s conference. Many of the experts I spoke with were kind enough to provide me quotes to share for this article regarding their take on ILTACON 2016.
