Lawyers, judges, paralegals, legal operations, and IT administrators also attend Fest.”
— Above the Law, July 2019
This year, Mike Gamson makes his Fest debut as our new CEO. Before Relativity, Mike spent 11 years at LinkedIn, where he was SVP of Global Solutions. Chris Brown, Relativity’s chief product officer (formerly CPO at Orbitz), and Andrew Sieja, Relativity’s founder and original developer, join Mike on stage to celebrate our community and set the vision for technology’s role in the legal, data governance, risk management, and compliance industries.
The Opportunity
At Relativity Fest, you will:
- Meet decision makers from organizations managing compliance and litigation centered on enterprise communication.
- Help shape how the legal tech community thinks about and handles chat data.
- Join the conversation with investigators, forensic experts, litigators, regulators, judges, GCs, and CIOs.

Analyzing communications is central to our customers’ work, and Slack is increasingly becoming their most sensitive and important data source. That’s why we would like to invite senior members of Slack’s product, compliance, and security teams to join us at Fest and participate in the programming.
