LawtechUK and Law Society of Northern Ireland
26 November 2024 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm GMT
FreeLawtechUK, the initiative backed by the Ministry of Justice (MoJ), is set to bring together forward-thinking minds in legal technology at the upcoming LawtechUK event in Belfast on Tuesday, November 26, 2024. The event is in partnership with The Law Society of Northern Ireland and will be held at the Clayton Hotel. It is open to legal professionals, innovators, investors, students, academics, and anyone interested in exploring the cutting edge of lawtech in Northern Ireland.
With Northern Ireland poised for a digital transformation, the government has shown a firm commitment to modernising its legal system. The event will consider the unique nature of the Northern Ireland ecosystem, for example, its focus on high street SME law firms, the impact and opportunities of ‘near-shoring’, and is the perfect opportunity to learn and understand what Northern Ireland is doing to adapt to tech and innovation.
Guests can expect updates on legal modernisation from Karen Ward, Chief Modernisation Officer at the Northern Ireland Courts and Tribunals Service (NICTS), and insights on legal innovation from John Keers, Law Lecturer and Course Director at Ulster University.
Key highlights of the event include:
Government-led transformation: An overview of ongoing modernisation efforts in Northern Ireland’s legal sector, supported by the Ministry of Justice.
Expert insights and discussions: A diverse array of speakers from LawtechUK, industry leaders, and local innovators will share how lawtech solutions are reshaping legal services.
Lawtech showcases: Real-world examples of tech-driven solutions accessible to Northern Ireland law firms, including cost-saving and efficiency-boosting tools.
Networking and collaboration: An opportunity to connect face-to-face with key stakeholders and the vibrant lawtech community, fostering collaboration and investment in Northern Ireland’s legal tech future.
This event marks an essential opportunity for anyone involved in the legal or tech sectors to engage with, learn about, and influence the evolution of the lawtech landscape in Northern Ireland.
