London – The legal technology landscape is set to be buzzing with excitement this fall as Richard Tromans, the founder of Artificial Lawyer, embarks on a tour filled with keynotes, panel discussions, and webinars across Europe and London. An influential figure in the legal tech community, Tromans will play a significant role across a variety of prestigious events targeting the developments and impacts of generative AI (GenAI) within the legal sector.
Kicking off in mid-October, Tromans will chair an engaging panel at the Litera and LexFusion Event in London. The discussion, titled “Ratcheting Expectations in the Age of GenAI,” will feature insights from Lucy Longmore of Koch Industries, Luis de Freitas from Boston Consulting Group, and Ben Stirling of Norton Rose Fulbright. This panel will explore how expectations from legal technologies have evolved with the advent of GenAI.
Immediately following, Tromans is set to participate in the Legal Geek conference, engaging in the “AI Playtime is Over Workshop”. This workshop, organized by BRYTER, will be a deep dive into the current state of GenAI in the legal arena, featuring industry experts like Nikki Shaver from Legal Tech Hub, as well as Michael Grupp and Max Paterson.
Apart from London, Tromans’s tour will take him to Copenhagen, Denmark, where he will deliver a keynote addressing the impact of GenAI on knowledge workers. As legal and economic professionals gather under the banner of Djoef, a prominent Danish professional organization, Tromans’s insights are expected to highlight both the advantages and challenges posed by the new technologies.
In November, attention shifts back to London for the Legal Innovators UK, a two-day event significant for those in the legal tech community. Tromans will serve as chair, guiding discussions that promise to shape the future of legal innovation.
The influence of AI on legal education will also be a major theme as Tromans chairs a crucial webinar hosted in collaboration with LexisNexis and Artificial Lawyer. The panel includes Megan Ma from Stanford’s CODEX, and Peter Alston of BPP, who will discuss how AI is not only integrating into educational contexts but reshaping them fundamentally.
Following up later in the month, another LexisNexis webinar chaired by Tromans titled “Developing an Innovation Strategy” will feature a panel of experts like Hélder Santos from Bird & Bird and Shilpa Bhandarkar from Linklaters. This webinar aims to outline strategies for fostering innovation within legal practices, a timely topic as firms increasingly look to leverage technology for competitive advantage.
Toward the end of November, Tromans will travel to Helsinki, Finland, to participate in the Nordic Legal Tech Day. His keynote and subsequent panel discussions are anticipated to provide pivotal insights into the integration of legal technology in the Nordic countries.
Richard Tromans jokes about the packed schedule, but his involvement underscores a critical time when technological advancements are redefining the legal landscape. As these tools become essential components of everyday legal practice, Tromans’s tour is not just about discussions, but setting the tone for the future of legal technology.
The culmination of these engagements hints at an even greater event slated for June in San Francisco — the Legal Innovators California. As the tech world looks forward to this major conference, the insights and foundations laid in the upcoming months will undoubtedly influence its agenda and discussions.
With such an impactful itinerary, Richard Tromans is poised to continue shaping and influencing the discourse around legal technologies, bringing clarity and strategic foresight to a rapidly evolving field.
