Pacific Transcription was delighted to partner with Nuance, who provide Dragon NaturallySpeaking Legal speech recognition software, in "An Audience with the Hon. Michael Kirby AC CMG", held on Thursday 6 September, 2012 at the Sebel  and Citigate, King George Square, Brisbane City. 

The Hon. Michael Kirby regaled audience members with anecdotes from a full, effective and engaged life; and reflected on the great leaps forward which he has witnessed Australia make as a nation over the last 50 years.  He included the areas of gay rights, equality for women and minorities, and environmental concerns. 

Mr Kirby predicted that the next big rights-based movement would be in the area of animal welfare.  He encouraged audience members to consider how differently they would view this rights movement in 50 years' time - just as he has looked back over his lifetime and seen amazing advances across gay, women's and First Nations' rights movements.  

Mr Kirby inspired members from the local legal fraternity with his consistent willingness to experiment with and embrace new technologies, including the very first forays into using speech recognition software within the legal context.  Mr Kirby's strong endorsement of Dragon NaturallySpeaking speech recognition software, including his own active and sustained daily use of the software since his retirement from the High Court of Australia, inspired many from the legal community to embrace this technology as a tool for improving efficiencies in workflow. 

Dragon NaturallySpeaking Legal speech recognition software enables people in the legal community to spend less time on administrative, repetitive tasks and more time on legal matters. 

Also speaking at the event was Nuance Communications  Sales Manager, Mr Derek Austin, and Pacific Transcription owner and CEO, Mr Steve Rutledge.  Both Mr Austin and Mr Rutledge captivated audience members with evidence of how far technology in the speech recognition software area has come in the last 15 years, culminating in the newly released Dragon NaturallySpeaking Version 12 Legal Australian edition. 

A practical demonstration of the software by Mr Austin confirmed the importance and power of speech recognition software as an effective and essential tool being used by legal professionals. 

 For more information on the newly released Dragon NaturallySpeaking speech recognition V.12 software contact the Products Team at Pacific Transcription on 07 3378 2668.
