Theme & Content

Legal technology is no longer just about “a new piece of software.”

AI, data, automation, productization, regulation and investment are redefining how legal services are produced, delivered and scaled.

At the İstanbul gathering, we approached the subject not with grand statements about the future, but through the new engine room of law: where legal professionals create value, how firms and in-house legal teams adapt to new ways of working, and where AI creates real value in everyday legal operations.

Another critical question was the road from Türkiye to the world: how does a LegalTech solution born in Türkiye become a genuine player in the global market?

That’s why lawyers, in-house teams, technology companies, startups, investors, academia and business came together around the same agenda.

  4. Panel

    There’s law, there’s code — where’s the application?

    Operational realities, AI, and the global LegalTech journey. We discussed legal technology not through abstract future scenarios but through its real-world use on the ground: how legal teams actually work, where AI creates value in those workflows, how technology becomes product, and what it takes to build globally scalable LegalTech from Türkiye.
