The First Annual LAW FIRM CFO/CIO FORUM: Aligning Finance and Information Technology for Competitive Strategic Advantage-New York
Today's economy requires law firms to examine their market position and identify their respective strengths and what makes them competitivewhether it's delivery of legal services, talent or the overall "client experience".
Key to understanding a firm's competitive strengths is having an insight into various parts of the business so a firm's management can make better decisions on where to invest, how to manage risk and how to drive greater returns on assets.
Finance and information technology play essential roles in enabling a firm's managers understanding of the firm's current position in the market and providing the information and data they need for creating a future strategy.
Plan to join us now for this one-day conference designed to bring to the table law firm CFOs, COOs and CIOs to share their experiences, best practices and observations. The conference is designed to facilitate an open dialogue among these key players and focus on practical solutions to common challenges from every perspective.
