The Information Technology Section of the State Bar of Michigan will conducts its Annual Summit on Thursday, October 22, from 8:15 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Michigan Central, 2001 15th Street Suite 101 in Detroit.

The summit provides a full day of programming at the intersection of law and technology. This year brings together attorneys, technologists, and industry leaders to explore the most pressing topics shaping our profession—from artificial intelligence and data privacy to autonomous vehicles, cybersecurity, and the legal landscape of data centers. 

At the end of the day, the section will have a complimentary tour of the Michigan Central Station.
