To ensure litigation readiness, information management, legal and IT departments must address the management of electronic communication within their organisation. A proactive corporate eDiscovery strategy includes a clearly defined information management process, an established information retention and disposal system and the support of the legal team.

However, most organisations remain ill-equipped to manage information for electronic discovery requests in a timely and cost-effective manner and are exposed to significant legal risks and associated costs.
This two-day connected forum will arm you with techniques to prepare your organisation for eDiscovery:

•Understand the requirements for responding to eDiscovery requests
•Establish order in management of corporate electronically stored information
•Enhance electronic document classification, management, access and discovery
•Mitigate the risks and costs of eDiscovery
•Staff your eDiscovery team
•Ensure organisational eDiscovery responsiveness
