SKILLS 2021

by SKILLS

SKILLS 2021 is a knowledge management conference traditionally held within the Legalweek tech conference in New York. Organized by Oz Benamram and Ron Friedmann, the event brings together knowledge management and innovation leaders from major global law firms to discuss current developments in the legal sector.

The conference features a mix of rapid-fire presentations and strategic discussions, highlighting the latest advancements in knowledge management, innovation, and the business of law. Sessions include speaker presentations, product-focused talks, and interactive breakout discussions, providing attendees with insights into emerging trends and technologies.

In 2021, SKILLS introduced a virtual format utilizing platforms like Shindig and Zoom to facilitate networking and presentations. This approach allowed for spontaneous group discussions, private conversations, and interactive sessions, enhancing participant engagement and replicating the dynamics of in-person events.

The event is designed for knowledge management professionals, innovation leaders, and legal technologists seeking to stay abreast of industry developments, share best practices, and explore innovative solutions to challenges in the legal sector.
