TECHSHOW Turns 40—And We’re Going Bigger Than Ever!
Get ready to celebrate 40 years of legal tech innovation at TECHSHOW 2025—now at our brand-new venue, McCormick Place Chicago! This milestone year brings our biggest EXPO hall yet, packed with cutting-edge exhibitors, hands-on learning, and for the first time ever, live sessions right on the EXPO floor.
More space, more tech, more ways to connect—this is the TECHSHOW you can’t afford to miss. Join us as we make history!
Get Ready for an Electrifying TECHSHOW 2025
We’re turning up the excitement this year with none other than Cory Doctorow as our Keynote Speaker! A visionary science fiction author, tech journalist, and digital rights advocate, Cory is known for shaking up the status quo and challenging the way we think about technology, policy, and the future.
Whether he’s crafting compelling narratives or fighting for internet freedom, his insights are sure to leave you inspired (and maybe even a little mind-blown). Don’t miss your chance to hear from one of the most dynamic voices in tech—TECHSHOW 2025 is going to be next-level!
Returning Service Project: PCs for People
Since 2022, The American Bar Association has partnered with non-profit PCs for People to contribute over 20,000 lbs of decommissioned computer equipment and over 650 computers. PCs for People refurbishes as many computers as possible to provide crucial technology access to low-income households. All equipment is handled in a responsible manner to ensure secure data destruction and stay out of landfills. Visit the PCs for People table near the registration desk to learn how your firm or organization can participate. To learn more visit www.pcsforpeople.org.
