Knowledge Network UK (KN-UK) is a learning, knowledge sharing and networking group for KMers who work in law firms, with branches in Bristol, Birmingham and Manchester (find out more here www.knowledgenetworkuk.com).

In order to improve KN-UK and make sure that it continues to provide great value for money and fufils the needs of the UK law firm KM community, I would be grateful if you would answer a few questions to help me understand which topics are useful and how else the group could develop.

Your answers can be anonymous and confidential.
