BOLD Bites

BOLD Bites business of law discussions are presentations based on the popular TED Talks where presenters discuss practical tips and innovative and provocative ideas in a fast-paced format.

Meeting of Minds

Engage. Collaborate. Innovate. Co-develop solutions to common challenges by leveraging the shared experiences and collective knowledge of your industry peers. ALA’s Meeting of Minds (formerly known as Idea Exchanges) enables participants to network extensively, discuss, debate and dissect best practices and topical issues within legal administration.

Deep Dives

To meet the demand for higher-level content, ALA is pleased to offer “deep dive” sessions at #ALAConf21. Intended for more experienced attendees, Deep Dives are cohesive and interactive sessions that allow for a more focused, in-depth exploration of a subject than is possible in regular sessions.

First Five Live!

The First Five Community is a forum for legal management professionals in the first five-ish years of their career. First Five Live! is an in-person opportunity to advance your skill set in a collaborative, supportive environment. Come prepared to talk freely and have frank, open discussions for maximum value!

Meet-Ups

#ALAConf21 Meetups allow you to enjoy the benefits of networking in a smaller group setting. With a combination of small-group gatherings around specific topics and local fun activities that allow you to get a taste of Austin, they’ll help you to get the most out of your time at the conference!
