About the event
AI and digitalisation are transforming more than the tools lawyers use. They are reshaping how legal professionals learn, work, build their careers and take professional responsibility.
As legal work becomes increasingly automated, accelerated and mediated by intelligent systems, the conversation moves beyond the technical skills future lawyers will need. It raises a broader question: what kind of legal professionals will tomorrow’s society require?
This session brings together four complementary perspectives to explore how the role of the legal professional is evolving — and what it means for the people shaping the future of law.
