2024 Theme: Evolving legal service delivery:

making an impact through digital transformation

In the past year, significant changes have occurred with the rise of AI and generative AI, suggesting that we might be on the brink of the next major disruption or saviour. It is crucial to distinguish between hype and reality and concentrate on the meaningful changes that technology can bring to law firms.

How can we distinguish between the hype and the transformative impact of AI? Where do we, as individuals, stand in this evolving technological landscape? Are we optimizing services to the point of making our own roles redundant, or is AI merely enhancing and simplifying our tasks as the creators claim?

We are stepping into an uncharted territory, and it is crucial to reflect on the effects on our practices, our clients, and ourselves.

The Lawtech Summit, in its eighteenth year, has served as a vital platform for addressing significant issues, like these, concerning law firms and technology since 2006.

The upcoming program will delve not only into the progress of AI but also explore other crucial areas such as cybersecurity, data compliance, and the digital transformation of law firms along with its implications.

The Lawtech Summit serves as a hub for learning and uniting the legal tech community, fostering the exchange of stories and experiences, and facilitating connections annually.
