Capital flows into the law to finance growth and consolidation. The size of the legal technology and law firm market is already $14 billion, and the industry is only entering the early stages of a long cycle of growth and consolidation. 2021 was the busiest year of mergers and acquisitions and financing in the industry. Notable acquisitions include the acquisition of Legility by Consilio, Brightflags from Joinder, Onits from BusyLamp, Litera from Kira Systems, Objective Manager and others, and revelations from Brainspace. DISCO, Intapp and LegalZoom have completed IPOs. Many law firms and law firm management teams (including us) closely follow their experience with publicly traded companies to decide whether to follow them in the public markets or work with private equity. With that in mind, there have been more than $100 million in private equity investments in 2021 in many legal technology companies such as Ontra, Clio, ContractPodAI, Litera, Everlaw, Reveal, and Ironclad. The great resignation and development of the people.

There are currently many discussions about the Great Resignation. Through our People Experience program, we prioritize the human aspects of work, such as culture, community and connections, to ensure that people feel at home, feel that their work is meaningful and fulfilling, and that their contribution is perceived and recognized. We invest heavily in learning and development, including training managers to build healthy relationships with our teams and provide opportunities for autonomy and control at work. While this varies by department and geography, I`m happy to share with you that Elevate`s company-wide unwanted revenue remains below our 15% target. We are proud to be one of the leading developers of legal talent, including fifteen students recruited by a single Big 4 newcomer, Deloitte, while the closest competitor has hired only two of our employees. We work hard to attract, develop and retain our employees. We believe that suppliers will best serve the entire legal industry by developing their own professional talents wherever possible.

Referring to other recent businesses, Brown pointed to Canadian legal software player Clio, which raised a $250 million Series D in September, and the acquisitions of Australian company Lexvoco by LOD and Simple Legal in 2019.
