INsig2 LawTech Europe Congress 2016 Generates Valuable Insights from Its Electronic Evidence Track

Prague, Czech Republic, December 07, 2016 --(PR.com)-- During its 2016 event, INsig2 LawTech Europe Congress (LawTech) has continued its mission of bringing inter-related industry leaders together to broaden their scope of learning and awareness. In furtherance of its mission, LawTech has included valuable insights from speakers within its Electronic Evidence Track.

“According to the speakers within our Electronic Evidence Track, cooperation and the use of technology are essential for efficiency and substantial cost savings in an era of big data,” said Frederick Gyebi-Ababio, Director of INsig2 LawTech Europe Congress. “However, there is still the ongoing issue of balancing discovery versus data protection.”

LawTech 2016 speakers provided the following suggestions and observations.

“Parties should cooperate where possible. The era of sensible, informed, and cooperative discussion about the use of TAR is well and truly upon us." - Dan Wyatt, RPC

“…We now have access to a powerful tool in our TAR armoury that, with sensible approaches by the parties and suitable endorsement by the court, can lead to massive costs savings and, as important, a feasible way of managing today’s large data volumes.” - Vince Neicho, Allen & Overy LLP

“…Many of the both new and existing data protection rights and principles remain difficult to reconcile with new technologies and in a data-rich environment. For example, it will be rather complicated to implement principles like privacy-by-design and data minimisation in a big data context.” - Julien Debussche, Bird & Bird

“The volume of analyzed text data in eDiscovery grows rapidly and it is no longer possible to proceed manually. It is necessary to employ the advanced approaches to text data processing. In their talk, Jan Balatka and Kateřina Veselovská from Deloitte explained how to effectively use semantic analysis to automatically discover patterns and trends in the data and thus to save clients’ time and money.

“No doubt, the vast majority of data generated worldwide every day through ISPs, smartphone applications, social networks etc., are generated exactly by the individuals! That’s the contribution of citizens, not only in terms of what privacy rights they would enjoy, but in terms of national security as well!” - Ljubica Pendaroska, C3I Skopje
