Legal Innovation Session

This panel is for all young and aspiring lawyers who want to modernize our legal and justice systems. What will the new legal landscape look like? And what are the prospects for aspiring lawyers? Are our law schools adequately training young lawyers? Our legal systems will undergo vast change in the years ahead. Let’s talk about how we can skate where the puck is going, not where it’s been.
