Featured speaker

Perspectives driving innovation and growth

Jesse Cole

Jesse Cole, founder of Fans First Entertainment and owner of the Savannah Bananas, may not be your first thought for a legal conference keynote. But hear us out: Jesse turned a small-town baseball team into a global phenomenon with a 4+ million-person ticket waitlist and 35 million social media followers, without changing the fundamentals or heart of the game.

In this keynote, Jesse will show you how to make his "Fans First" philosophy that built Banana Ball into a practical playbook for your law firm. Learn how to stand out in a commoditized market with top-notch branding, build client loyalty that leads to referrals, and turn your firm's culture into its most powerful marketing asset. It'll be the freshest case study in building a firm that stands out!

Encore Beach Club at Night

Kaleidoscope kicked off at one of Las Vegas's most iconic poolside venues. At the opening reception at Encore Beach Club, attendees met the people they'd spend the next three days learning from, under the desert sky, with cocktails and conversation flowing.

Intrigue Night at the Wynn

The closing night at Intrigue was Kaleidoscope's send-off: a proper celebration after three days of hard work and new ideas. Attendees had three hours to close out strong, debrief with new connections, and remember why this conference is worth putting on the calendar every year.

Proud partner of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers

We've really enjoyed getting to network and see people that we have a lot of calls with but don't necessarily see in person—really meeting the people behind everything. It's been a really, really great time.
