There are two commonly known approaches to innovation within organizations: top-down or bottom-up. The leaders of these employee initiatives are intrapreneurs, people who think outside the box, identify untapped opportunities and drive transformative change from within.

The hype is REAL - ChatGPT is on the tongues of millions of people all over the world. The users are also lawyers, who question its significance for the future - or present - of the legal sector. Is it a risk, or an opportunity to us - lawyers - and our clients? In the first Legaltech Academy Meetup of 2023, our guest, Agel Sancho Ferrer, shares with us his thoughts and reflections over this latest development.

The innovation team talks to Dr Allan McCay of Sydney Law School on his recent report-'Neurotechnology, law and the legal profession' - to find out more about the emerging impacts of neurotechnology on the legal industry.

The innovation team talk to Clifford Chance Trainee Associate Danielle Sim and Associate Leonard Lee on their recent participation in DBS' Hackathon For A Better World: Building A Scam Resilient Society, including the importance of Design Thinking for lawyers, and how to think differently in the ways of legal services delivery.

Contracts are the lifeblood of every company. They are a framework for every transaction and any money earned or spent by an organization. Therefore, the quality of contracts and the way they are negotiated, drafted, and managed can be either a source of value or a hidden trap. Yet, according to estimations published by Harvard Business Review, between 5% to 40% of the value of a deal is being lost by companies due to ineffective contracting processes. Thus, poorly managed contracts may cause revenue leakage, undermine growth, and harm the company’s reputation. Luckily, legal technology comes to the rescue. Legaltech Academy recently released an e-book on applying technology into contracting. In this podcast episode, you will discover its content and hear why it is important to learn more on document automation, document management, and document review.
