EDRM Announces Spring Event Schedule

SAINT PAUL, MN--(Marketwired - Feb 26, 2014) -  EDRM, the leading standards organization for the e-discovery market, announced today two important upcoming events:

• Second Annual Electronic Discovery Conference

Co-hosted by EDRM and University of Florida - Fredric G. Levin College of Law

March 14, 2014

Gainesville, Florida

"Letting Data Tell the Winning Litigation Story"

The University of Florida E-Discovery/EDRM Conference for the Small and Medium Case this year focuses on letting your data tell the winning litigation story. E-discovery is more than responding to production requests. At its heart, e-discovery is locating, parsing and restructuring the voluminous and diverse case data -- emails, texts, word processing documents, social media postings and messages, databases, digital photos, browsing history, computer logs and more -- into a coherent, winning story.

Registration is open to the public, and attendance may be in person or streamed online. For more information or to register for the EDRM/University of Florida E-Discovery Conference, visit the event website.
