(BIA (http://www.biaprotect.com/)), a leader in eDiscovery software (http://www.biaprotect.com/our-product.html) and services (http://biaprotect.com/services.html), announced today that Robin Athlyn Thompson (http://www.linkedin.com/in/robinathlynthompson) will participate in a panel focused on social media at the 2016 ACEDS Conference in New York.

"The importance of social media cannot be understated as part of the communication plan of any business organization.  It's important for all of us working in law firms and legal firms inside corporations to understand the value and impact of social media in our day-to-day activities," said Robin Athlyn Thompson (http://www.linkedin.com/in/robinathlynthompson), Vice-President of Marketing for Business Intelligence Associates.  "Today, the use of social media in the business has increased substantially, and we see organizations using social media in the hiring process, in the buying process, to share information with colleagues and clients, and to build professional and corporate brands.  It's incredibly insightful for ACEDS to include a program on this topic.  This will be a fabulous interactive discussion, and one I hope everyone will attend," added Thompson.

When asked about Thompson's participation in this discussion, panel moderator Rob Robinson (https://www.linkedin.com/in/wrrobinson) said "Robin's balance of expertise and excitement coupled with her reputation and relationships is one envied by many and attained by few."  "I am equally excited to participate with both Ari Kaplan (https://www.linkedin.com/in/theopportunitymaker) and Rob Robinson (https://www.linkedin.com/in/wrrobinson) who are among our industry's top voices in social media.  I've long admired their work and it's exciting to share our combined experience with conference attendees," added Thompson.
