Extract from Damir Kahvedžić’s article “Dublin Autumn Conference Round Up”
Last month, the Dublin team participated in three notable conferences which discussed advancements in eDiscovery, GenAI and cybersecurity. These meet ups provided a fascinating insight in how other clients and vendors are dealing with new technology and handling the complexities of our field. This article reviews the key takeaways and highlights from each of them.
Women in eDiscovery: Autumn Meetup
The Dublin chapter of the Women in eDiscovery held its second meet up of the year. It was organised by our new Dublin Engagement Manager Rachel McAdams and featured Katherine Gillespie (Forensic Accountant, KPMG), Magdalena Wojnowska (Senior Operational and Project Manager, A&L Goodbody), and Clare Longworth (Community Enablement Architect at Relativity). The discussion offered a blend of perspectives on current challenges in eDiscovery from investigative, regulatory, project management, and technological viewpoints.
A highlight of the talk was when Katherine talked about investigating alleged malpractice and fraudulent activity. Katherine spoke about how data from various sources often requires to be weaved together to tell the story of potential business malpractice. Once data can be successfully integrating from various sources such as bookkeeping database systems, financial records, mobile chat data, light work can be made of the investigation.
