2023 was a year filled with recognition for UniCourt. It began in February when the ABA Journal announced that UniCourt\u2019s CEO and Co-Founder, Josh Blandi<\/a>, had been featured in its Legal Rebels Class of 2023<\/a> as an innovative entrepreneur in the legal technology space and a leader of the legal data market for enterprise businesses and consumers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Not far behind that announcement came the news that UniCourt had been featured by Asia Law Portal for the second consecutive year. After UniCourt\u2019s CTO and Co-Founder, Prashanth Shenoy<\/a>, was recognized in 2022 as one of the 30 People to Watch in the Business of Law in Asia<\/a>, this year, UniCourt, as a company, was spotlighted as one of the 55 Legal Tech Companies in Asia to Follow in 2023<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The most exciting award for UniCourt this year was the Enterprise Award of the 2023 American Legal Technology Awards<\/a>. Winning the Enterprise Award was an incredible testament to UniCourt\u2019s journey from a legal tech startup in 2014 to a recognized industry leader in Legal Data as a Service (LDaaS) as an enterprise-level legal technology company providing real-time court data and legal analytics powered by the only API-first platform in LegalTech. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We ended the year with the news that UniCourt is a finalist for the 2024 Legalweek Leaders in Tech Law Awards<\/a>. Keep an eye out for the final results in early 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n UniCourt\u2019s Influencer Q&A series<\/a> is our longest-running publication and provides a window into what\u2019s happening in legal technology. This year, we spoke to several leading legal industry influencers, including legal tech consulting leaders, law firm knowledge management professionals, CIOs, and law firm marketing experts. Here are a few nuggets of knowledge from this year\u2019s Influencers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI start every project by asking two questions: (1) What is the problem we are trying to solve and (2) Is this a problem worth solving?\u201d Meghann Barloewen<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI want to stress that data modeling and analytics are very challenging without clean, secure, and un-siloed data.\u201d Othiel Glover<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAs the legal marketing industry continues to evolve, it\u2019s more important than ever for law firms to remain agile and adaptive.\u201d Tanner Jones<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cFor law firms buying tech, my advice is always the same \u2013 make sure you fully understand and identify a valuable \u2018problem to solve\u2019 before you consider spending a dollar.\u201d Cheryl Wilson Griffin<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Here is a complete list of the Influencer Q&As from 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In early 2023 UniCourt sponsored a Nationwide Legal Research & Writing Competition<\/a> for law students throughout the U.S. to highlight the importance of improving access to the law, as well as the value of excellent legal writing skills. The competition covered four areas of law, with one winner in each category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These law students stood out above the rest:<\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2023, UniCourt had the opportunity to gather the insights from several law firm marketing and business development experts. Working with Brad Blicksteirn of Baretz + Brunelle\u2019s New Law team, we developed our report, Marching Toward Data-Driven Business Development: Industry Insights from Am Law CMOs<\/em><\/a>, Our experts also collaborated with Brad to create a Law Firm Maturity Model deck and survey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the fall, UniCourt sponsored Ari Kaplan\u2019s Fueling Firm Growth, Virtual Lunch Series<\/em>. It consisted of online interviews with Am Law chief marketing and business development officers and other senior law firm leaders covering how their firms are using data to fuel firm growth. If you didn\u2019t have a chance to view these informative sessions, recordings are available on our blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The UniCourt team traveled the US this year, educating legal professionals, learning from our peers, and meeting up with old and new friends, partners, and colleagues. These are the main events we attended:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Legalweek 2023 featured wonderful content, insights, and intelligence from the many panel sessions, including the session sponsored by UniCourt, Investigations vs Monitoring: Strengthening Your Monitoring Program in the Pursuit of Less Investigations<\/em>, Our CEO and Co-Founder, Josh Blandi, moderated the session which featured industry experts, including Eric Boger<\/a>, Vice President, Solutions Evangelist of Ontic, Terance \u201cTery\u201d <\/a>Gonsalves<\/a>, Partner, Alston & Bird LLP, and Deborah Solmor<\/a>, General Counsel & Corporate Secretary, TCS Education System. <\/p>\n\n\n\n 2023 was the first year that UniCourt sponsored ILTACON, and what a time we had as the event was back in full swing after the COVID hiatus. Prior to the conference, we announced the release of our UniCourt Enterprise API. During the event, we shared our industry insights report, Marching Toward Data-Driven Business Development: Industry Insights from Am Law CMOs.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n UniCourt was honored to sponsor the ARK: KM Legal 2023 conference at the silver level. Our CEO, Josh Blandi, also moderated a panel titled Danger Data Overload: Finding a Needle in a Haystack<\/em>. KM leaders from three Am Law 100 firms participated in the lively discussion: Keli Lea <\/a>Whitnell<\/a>, Director of Firm Intelligence at Troutman Pepper, Vishal <\/a>Agnihotri<\/a>, Senior Director of Knowledge and Innovation at Alston & Bird, and Courtney Toiaivao<\/a>, Director of Research Services\u202f at Holland & Knight LLP. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Are you interested in educating the legal industry on using APIs for legal data?
