In my role as Product Marketing VP of the Global Legal Segment for IntraLinks, I just completed an international speaking tour to engage General Counsel around the world about their most pressing needs. The goal was to have a conversation about how IntraLinks for Corporate Legal Management can provide solutions for those needs.

It truly was a global tour over the past month. I participated on a panel on technology solutions at the ACC Europe annual conference in Berlin, where I had the opportunity to share perspectives with in-house counsel from across Europe over the course of three days. IntraLinks led a panel at the ALM Corporate Counsel event in New York City, where I served as moderator and heard the viewpoints from General Counsel in the United States. And IntraLinks hosted a dinner event at the Savoy Hotel in London for a thought leadership discussion on risk readiness with senior corporate counsel based in the United Kingdom.

Last month I attended the inaugural “Dealmakers of the Year Awards” at Scott’s restaurant in London. The event, hosted by IntraLinks with the support of the Mergermarket Group, celebrated the achievements of M&A practitioners who have excelled in their field during the past 12 months in spite the financial crisis and its dramatic effect on global M&A deal volumes.

Short listing for the event was undertaken independently by mergermarket using the mergermarket.com M&A deals database which tracks transactions where the value is greater than €5m. Financial advisors and lawyers qualified on the basis of advice given on transactions to UK-based corporations, targets, vendors and acquirers. Selection was based on both the total volume and value of deals advised on.

At the end of April, IntraLinks attended Infosecurity Europe, Europe’s largest information security event. Celebrating its 15th year, Infosecurity Europe attracted over 12,000 information security professionals to Earls Court Exhibition Centre in London, where delegates gathered to discuss the most pressing information security issues and attend a variety of education sessions hosted by international speakers and industry experts.

With over 300 exhibitors, Infosecurity Europe provided the perfect opportunity to showcase new and innovative services to top security professionals across Europe. IntraLinks was there to showcase IntraLinks Courier, a secure, efficient and cost effective solution to streamline ad-hoc large file transfers. IntraLinks Courier seamlessly integrates with company email systems or can be used as a desktop application or via a web-based browser, introducing unmatched security to help business users securely exchange large files while maintaining compliance with requirements that govern their businesses.
