International Legal Technology Association

What International Legal Technology Association does

The International Legal Technology Association (ILTA) is a 501(c)(6) non-profit professional association headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, with an additional operations office in Austin, Texas. Founded around 1980, ILTA serves 26,000+ individual members from law firms and corporate/government legal operations across 20+ countries, supported by 160+ corporate sponsors. The association operates a volunteer-led, staff-managed model, organizing its member base into 100+ topic communities and delivering value through peer-led programming rather than traditional product sales.

ILTA's portfolio is organized around four pillars: (1) annual and regional conferences, including the flagship ILTACON (4.5 days, 80+ sessions), ILTACON Europe (now in its 18th year), and ILTA EVOLVE; (2) on-demand educational content via ILTA On-Demand, ILTA Voices podcasts, the quarterly Peer to Peer magazine, and an annual Technology Survey; (3) community platforms including the Knowledge Hub, discussion forums, member directory, career center, and myILTA mobile app; and (4) recognition and development programs such as the Distinguished Peer Awards (16th year in 2026), Women Who Lead, myMentor, and the Buddy Program. The technology backbone runs on Higher Logic for community/membership web platforms, Salesforce (referenced as "ILTA Connect") for CRM and event registration, Cognito Forms for data collection, ExpoFP for event floor planning, and Canva for marketing assets.

ILTA generates revenue across five streams: recurring membership dues from individuals and organizations, conference registration fees ($2,250-$3,999 per attendee at ILTACON), tiered corporate sponsorships (Silver, Gold, Platinum, Titanium, and ILTAMAX levels), advertising and publications revenue from Peer to Peer magazine and white papers, and one-time fees such as the $3,500 Startup Hub booth sponsorship. Its go-to-market is community-led, relying on peer referrals, corporate sponsor relationships, and live events as the primary member acquisition channels.
