ReInvent Law events are presented in an engaging, fast-paced format. The conference is aimed at anyone interested in the future of law or the intersection of law, technology, and entrepreneurship. Lawyers, technology specialists, social media enthusiasts, bloggers, entrepreneurs, telecom experts, venture capitalists, academics, students and journalists should plan to attend.

“We are thrilled to announce the ABA Journal’s partnership with us to make ReInvent Law NYC a reality. The ABA Journal’s support will enable us to build upon the success of our recent events in London and Silicon Valley,” said ReInvent Law co-founders, Renee Newman Knake and Daniel Martin Katz, associate professors of law at MSU Law.
