Law Society of Scotland leads innovation to the EU on LegalTech trade mission

Supported by the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) and organised by the Department for International Trade (DIT) and Scottish Development International, the mission is the first of its kind. Held on the 6th and 7th November 2018, the attending companies will have the opportunity to meet and pitch to top legal firms in the Austrian and Swiss markets.

The four companies representing Scotland on this mission are Amiqus Resolution, Juralio, SnapDragon and Ulpian Systems. They will join nine other UK-based legaltech businesses at the organised events. In Vienna, the event will form part of the Future Law’s LegalTech Conference 2018, and in Zurich, the event has been organised in conjunction with the British Swiss Chamber of Commerce. 

Paul Mosson, executive director at the Law Society of Scotland, will be speaking during the event, highlighting Scotland’s drive for innovation and best practice in the law sector.

He said: “Scotland has a deep-rooted heritage of innovation and legal tech is no different. I am convinced that Scotland will emerge as a global leader in this field as it has in fintech. Our initiative LawscotTech will focus on delivering the right solutions for our members and ensure they can retain their reputation for providing outstanding legal service for clients, in Scotland and around the world, while helping them innovate for the future.

“I am thrilled to be working with the four companies heading out to Zurich with us on this mission, all of which demonstrate Scottish innovation and entrepreneurialism.”
