Follow on Google News | Women in eDiscovery™ Celebrates 9-year AnniversaryThe organization's members are women who work within the legal industry, including general counsel, secretaries, partners, associates, chief operating officers, paralegals, litigation support and e-discovery professionals. Local chapters typically hold an educational session, some CLE-accredited, each month, and the national board organizes larger events around major legal technology trade shows and association meetings throughout the year. Earlier this year, a new board of executive directors launched a new logo and website. Since then, more than 600 new members have joined the organization. The tagline "Women Empowering Women" reflects WiE's steadfast mission to leverage its broad network of women volunteers to uplift and support one another. "WiE has come a long way since 2007, when the first meeting of 30 women was held in Washington, D.C.," stated Jackie Rosborough, WiE executive director. "In the past nine years, we have achieved a significant presence in the legal industry, with more than 4,000members and 27 active chapters, and we're still growing." Women in eDiscovery promotes philanthropy throughout the organization. This past year the organization exceeded its goal and raised over $2,200 for the American Heart Association's Go Red campaign, which provides funding to increase awareness of heart disease in women. In addition, other chapters contributed to numerous charities and participated in community service events across the nation.
