Cyberweek 2012 Review
“This year, Cyberweek – the annual conference on Online Dispute Resolution – was held once again on ADRHub, the web portal for the ADR community maintained by the Werner Institute of Creighton University’s School of Law. This is Cyberweek’s 15th anniversary, and the program’s schedule was jam-packed with activity.
Bigger and Better!
As Colin Rule, CEO of Modria.com, put it, “This Cyberweek was the biggest and best ever. The range of presentations, the number of discussion forums, and the sophistication of the exchanges was of a level I’ve never seen.”
He sure got that right; Cyberweek 2012 surpassed all previous in terms of activities and participants. Dozens of participants took part in 10 live video webinars, and hundreds more have seen the archived versions which remain available on ADRHub.com. In addition to these topical webinars, a dozen ODR platforms and products – some familiar, many new – were presented in webinars or other activities. For those who preferred participating asynchronously, 16 ODR experts facilitated 12 text-based forum conversations on a range of topics in ODR. All of the webinars, activities and discussion forums were archived and can be viewed directly through Cyberweek 2012’s homepage.”
This really was a great Cyberweek. I still haven’t gotten through all the great threads, recordings, and demos! Kudos to the whole team for pulling it together.
