The Most Wonderful Time of the Year
ILTA season is our favorite time of year. It’s also the busiest.
Conference shines above all other industry events. It provides an unparalleled opportunity for us to connect in person with the legal community, educate ourselves about emerging trends and network with peers and colleagues – all in a relaxed and spirited atmosphere. The volunteers and staff at ILTA do a wonderful job putting together a consistently amazing experience.
A highlight for us is the annual IntApp ILTA wine tasting event. We invite clients, prospective clients and partners to relax and enjoy some wine, cheese and chocolate (and the occasional smuggled beer) amidst the hustle and bustle of the conference.
To keep things interesting, each year we invite several clients to pre-taste and present a selection of wines to their peers. Past wine selectors have included the teams at: DLA Piper, Finnegan, Cozen O’Connor, Davies Ward, K&L Gates, O’Melveny & Myers, McCarthy Tétrault, Vedder Price, Orrick, Paul Weiss, and several others. (Oh and MoFo, who’s been particularly passionate about selecting the Pinot for several years running.)
In recent years, we’ve added a few twists to keep things interesting… Past attendees may remember the infamous “Logo Wall” of 2007. (We thought the adhesive would be strong enough… but found several firms waiting in friendly competition to see if a rival’s logo would fall or not.)
Last year, we really wanted to surprise folks and took a chance on the “Logo Floor,” an acrylic-covered logo menagerie of 125 clients. There was some internal concern on our end about how people would feel about walking on this… but it turned out to be a big hit.
We’ve cooked up a few surprises for 2009. We always try to maintain the flair, class and integrated splash of fun people have come to expect from IntApp.
