The conversation explores how organisations are adapting to the rise of legal tech and the evolving role of lawyers in an environment increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence. Together they discuss how governance teams can respond to regulatory changes, the practical realities of compliance and the skills required to support responsible innovation.

The exchange highlights the importance of clear processes, cross-functional collaboration and design-led approaches that make complex legal frameworks more accessible. The guests also reflect on how leaders can futureproof legal operations, strengthen risk management and build strategies that help organisations stay resilient as AI continues to transform professional practice.
