🖥️**In-House Technology Summit - 2 Minute Survey** Earlier this month a select group of innovative leaders in the in-house legal field came together to help shape the agendas for our In-House Technology event. Four key themes emerged from our UK leaders: > How can in-house lawyers resist pressure from the business to always do 'more for less', by offering the opportunity to do 'more for more’? > The “tug-of-war” between legal tech and enterprise tech – which will deliver better for legal? > Mitigating friction points between legal teams and their panel firms? >The lawyer and legal department of the future: embracing technology or losing relevance? NOW IT'S YOUR TURN: In preparation for the 2025 Summit, we would love to hear from legal industry leaders driving innovation in the in-house sector. What challenges or opportunities should we bring to the forefront of the 2025 UK and Europe events? Please take a moment to share your thoughts via this 2 minute survey and join the conversation that drives innovation across the industry, for either our UK or Europe event here: UK Summit: https://lnkd.in/eHdDkgph Europe Summit: https://lnkd.in/eSKbgQG6
