Pressing Forward: Resilience and Opportunity

Learn how law firms are demonstrating resilience and adaptability in 2020, and how they are innovating in times of crisis.

Recorded and available on-demand.

Adapting and innovating in 2020 and beyond

Did you know that the most impactful innovations emerged from past global crises? Think Newton’s theory of gravity, Gutenberg’s printing press, and even the modest tea bag.

Although innovating in times of crisis sounds impossible, adapting and innovating are essential for surviving—and ultimately, thriving.

  • Why now is the time to create opportunity
  • Tips for future-proofing your business
  • How UK law firms are being innovative right now

    Managing Director, Anson Evaluate Ltd

    Lockdown has inspired many individuals to get creative and start working on that great idea for an App which will make them the next Uber, Just Eat or Facebook. A more egalitarian environment for technology development means an app can be developed with little or no capital investment but this also means little or no funds to insure legal compliance. We are working to bridge this legal gap by creating automated tools that allow these entrepreneurs to obtain the compliant "small print" for their new products at a fraction of the price but with the high quality they would get from paying full price for an interview and draft of the same documents.
