JoAnna Forshee, CEO has spent the last nine years working with legal technologists, consultants, industry vendors and media editors and publishers - spanning roles as a marketing event guru, entrepreneur and PR/marketing agency business owner. Through this relationship building, she has been involved in the planning and execution of many high profile legal technology events including the Legal Technology Consultants and Technologists Dinner (an invitation-only VIP event that brings together the Who's Who of the legal technology industry for a night of high profile networking), the New Orleans Technology Revival Conference (a free conference to assist Louisiana attorneys and law firms in rebuilding their practices in the wake of Hurricane Katrina), LexThink events (high-level legal industry brainstorming events) as well as several other regional seminars. She currently serves on the Advisory Board for the ABA TECHSHOW, produces the ABA Media Panel and collaborates with ILTA to produce its annual conference vendor education program and administer the Annual ILTA Member Technology Purchasing Survey. When JoAnna is not managing events and producing client user group conferences, she is contributing to Law Technology News and Law Firm Inc. as well as strengthening ties with UK publications such as Legal Technology Insider and CityTech. In fact, content has been at the top of her agenda lately with the 2008 launch of InsideLegal.com, a legal technology marketing, industry news and events blog; the kick-off of InsideLegal’s Summit events series, as well as the production of the legal industry’s first legal technology marketing survey designed to help legal technology marketing companies better understand their marketing mix and provide benchmarks compared to their peers. InsideLegal has also teamed with UK’s Legal Technology Insider publication to launch the American Legal Technology Insider publication in the US, targeting large law firms. She also was the 2004 Lex Proficio Award Winner for Lifetime Achievement in the Advancement of Legal. It is fair to say, that based on JoAnna’s understanding of “all things legal” and her ties with the “who’s who” of the industry, she is one of the first stops when it comes to new entrants into the legal tech world.
