Tonight we had our first ever SCL - Society for Computers and Law trainee lawyers event outside of London, in Manchester. Some really insightful discussions from our esteemed panel were had, and then a great end to the night with networking. We had first seat trainees all the way to experienced lawyers attend from different backgrounds and with unique specialisms. A real hubbub of enthusiasm and passion for techlaw, and a great way to meet likeminded people! Do keep an eye out for more events up North!

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who attended our panel on Global Cybersecurity & Data Privacy in the Age of AI at #SXSWSydney2024! 🙌 We threw a broad net over some very niche areas, and we absolutely loved how engaged and interactive the crowd was. It wasn’t just a panel—it felt like a real conversation between our experts and the audience. Here are a few key takeaways that sparked the most discussion: 💡 𝗔𝗜 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗶𝗻𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗼𝗿 𝗯𝗮𝗱 —it’s all about how we use it. It’s up to us to define AI’s purpose and ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place for its ethical use. 💡 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗳𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀. AI needs large, centralized datasets to train models, but in sectors like healthcare, data is often scattered across different providers, making it difficult to unlock AI’s full potential. 💡 𝗚𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆 𝗮 𝗸𝗲𝘆 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲. By creating sovereign AI capabilities—like Denmark’s partnership with Novo Nordisk and NVIDIA—nations can leverage their existing private sector strengths to lead in AI innovation. Shoutout to our incredible panelists for bringing their expertise and energy: 🔹 Anthony Bekker 🔹 Scott Wilkie 🔹 Vivian Zhou 🔹 Erkan Izat We’re already excited for what’s next and hope to see you all again soon!
