2018-2019 exchange Winter 2019 Newsletter FINAL | Page 5

Dear Readers:
The Chapter year is in full swing, and there is a lot
to be excited about! One upcoming event that I
would like to highlight in this column is the Spring
Conference on March 5 th .
Notably, the conference features four diverse educa-
tional tracks— Governance, Risk & Control, Technology, Information
Governance/RIM Practices and Legal— and key topics include priva-
cy, data governance, cybersecurity, cross-border data issues and stra-
tegic planning and growth. As always, the sessions will be led by
prominent speakers, such as Bill Saffady, Jason Stearns, and Mark Di-
amond. Please click here to learn more and register!
As you know, the content of last year’s issues focused on data. Since
the response was overwhelmingly positive, I decided to continue to
feature content on this topic. In this issue, there is a video excerpt
from the September 2018 evening meeting where use cases for ana-
lytics in law firms and corporations was discussed. I also included a
prior interview with a data scientist. I think the interview and the
presentation complement each other quite nicely— the former pro-
vides the reader with a solid understanding of data science and its use
cases while the latter delves into more detail about data analytics initi-
atives.
I hope you enjoy this issue and, as always, please feel free to share
your feedback with me.
