Ep 263: Live from #ClioCon: A Clio Power Trio: COO Ronnie Gurion, CFO Curt Sigfstead, and Board Member Mark Britton


Listen Later

This has been a significant year for the law practice management company Clio, which in July raised a record-setting $900 million financing round – the largest ever for a legal tech company, and which recently wrapped up its 12th annual Clio Cloud Conference, its largest ever with some 2,600 attendees in person in Austin, Texas, and almost as many attending virtually from all over the globe.

At the conference, LawNext host Bob Ambrogi sat down for a live interview with a "Clio power trio" of two of its top executives and a member of its board of directors. They talk about the implications of this raise and its impact on the law practice management landscape. Together for this interview are:

  • Ronnie Gurion, chief operating officer and former GM and global head of Uber for Business.

  • Curt Sigfstead, chief financial officer, responsible for Clio's financial affairs, including finance, accounting, capital, treasury, taxation, and corporate development.

  • Mark Britton, an investor in Clio and member of its board of directors and investor and formerly the founder, chairman and CEO of Avvo.

They share their perspectives on the financing and the opportunities it presents. They also discuss why investors are showing greater interest in legal tech, consolidation within the legal tech industry, and the possibility of Clio going public.

Note that last week's episode, also recorded live at the conference, featured Jack Newton, Clio's founder and CEO.
