AKD Legal Tech Evening

This event is free!


What will the future of law firms look like? Will lawyers be replaced by robots or is this science fiction? How will technology change the way firms work together with their clients? We are invited to discuss the future of AKD and their industry on May 15 at 16:00 on the 44th floor of their Rotterdam office.


Multiple lawyers of AKD will be present, including their managing partner. The goal of the evening is for AKD to get a better insight into the possibilities of using technology at their firm, including Data Science. Dinner is included!


There are limited spots available and selection will be based on a short motivation. Registration deadline is 12 May.
