An article by Chris Dale on his blog the e-Disclosure Information Project.
This article discusses the recent international eDiscovery conference held in Munich, Germany and organized by the IQPC.
The author writes, "E-Discovery touches a lot of corners. It has multiple players: there are the companies whose data must be found and produced for court proceedings, for a regulatory investigation or for internal purposes, and within the companies are multiple duties and responsibilities which are not necessarily aligned. We have the lawyers who advise them, all too often reactively rather than in anticipation of problems. There are the judges and regulators who manage proceedings and who have an interest in efficient and proportionate outcomes. Lastly, there are the suppliers whose technology and consultancy helps address the problems. eDiscovery has many facets – an ever-wider range of data sources and types, matters of budget and reputation, and overlays of privacy and HR; the issues arise in very similar form in many different jurisdictions."
The article provides insight and discussion into many of the events that took place at the conference, and provides information regarding some of the panels that the author Mr. Dale participated in.
In addition, the article states, "This was a very good conference, appealing to all those with an interest in eDiscovery outcomes. IQPC has many divisions which appear to outsiders to compete with each other even within jurisdictions and industry sectors. This particular team has always been a strong one, responsive to the views of those who attend as well as those who sponsor its events, and they were soliciting views for future events before this one closed."
