Description:

It’s been said that data is the ‘new oil’ – potentially highly valuable but in need of processing and refinement. With many law firms sitting on mountains of data, and increasingly aware of the need to innovate in the arena of digital law, many are asking how they can leverage their data to provide clients with new legal products and services, alongside fresh management and business insights.

So, how can firms make sense of their systems, navigate their datasets and join them up into strategically and commercially valuable commodities? How are some businesses scanning the horizon for new opportunities, and which tools are available to map out firms’ banks of knowledge and data?

These questions were among those posed in Briefing’s recent webcast: How can firms harness data to drive strategic advantage? We heard from legal professionals at international law firms discussing their digital law journeys, including Dale Hodgkinson, head of strategy and architecture at Slaughter and May, and Fernando Antas da Cunha, managing partner at Antas da Cunha ECIJA, Portuguese branch of international law firm ECIJA. Lastly, we also had technological insight from Moacyr Galo, head of sa.global labs, who offered his perspective on the ways law firms could connect stores of knowledge and data to make better decisions about how to differentiate themselves in future.
