10:05 A non legal take on the CIO role
Often the best ideas come from an external perspective. This session will compare and contrast the role of CIO from the perspective of a parallel business sector. Demanding clients, valuable intellectual property and minimal budgets all strike a chord with the modern legal IT professional, but how do your counterparts outside of the legal profession handle such challenges?

10.40 Understanding the internal corporate pressures on your in-house clients
As the business world inwhich our clients work in changes; so too do their requirements for the provision of legal services. In-house legal teams are facing an increasing amount of internal pressure to take on board more work internally and improve the efficiency of workflow. This session will assess any shifts in client demands and communication preferences from the perspective of general counsel and other board level stakeholders who drive legal work in the first place.

11:50 Cyber threat 2012
This fascinating closing session will explore the very latest and most sophisticated cyber threats that are threatening the business world. Expect to hear practical examples of how organized criminals are threatening information security within organisations and how best to insulate your firm from cyber attack.
