- Understand what separates genuine progress in legal AI from conference hype, and what autonomous tools are actually delivering inside leading legal functions today
- Examine how agentic AI is reshaping law firm workflows, the billable hour and the career paths of junior lawyers, and what senior leaders need to decide before the transition accelerates
- Unpack the accountability fault lines that autonomy creates: when AI executes on a matter and something goes wrong, who carries the risk - the lawyer, the business, or the vendor?
Legora at Legal Tech Talk
We're showing up in full force this year - with a booth, a coffee shop, unmissable sessions, and a private space for one-to-one conversations.
For three decades, legal technology has been a story in two acts.
Act One was digitisation: paper became data, and documents, contracts, billing and discovery moved online. Act Two was automation: repetitive tasks were handed to machines through templates, workflows and rules engines. Now, Act Three - the age of autonomy, where software reasons, decides and executes - has begun.
The question is no longer whether AI can do legal work, but how much autonomy we give it, how quickly, and what happens when things go wrong. In this session, PwC's Sandeep Agrawal brings together the builders and buyers of legal AI - the CEOs of iManage, Leah and Legora, alongside the General Counsel of Dentsu - to interrogate what autonomy delivers today, where it falls short, and what it means for law firms, in-house teams and the lawyers who work within them.

Legal technology’s third act
Digitisation, automation and now autonomy

When Linklaters deployed AI across 3,800 lawyers in 20 countries, the goal was never just adoption - it was transformation.
Sarah Barnard, Director of Applied Intelligence at Linklaters, and Alex Fortescue-Webb, Head of UK&I at Legora, walk through the full journey: from the first firm-wide rollout, to being a design partner on key design features to the latest agentic AI launch - sharing candid lessons on what it really takes to embed AI at scale.
What you'll learn
- How Linklaters built momentum from day one and continued to drive deeper usage month on month across its global network
- How to have honest ROI conversations when AI complicates traditional metrics like billing and resourcing
- What building lasting internal capability looks like - talent, skills, and the human side of working with AI
- How to bring leadership, clients and boards along on the journey
- The real lessons learned along the way - what worked, what didn't, and what they'd do differently

Join for a hands-on, slightly competitive escape room challenge where you'll work through a realistic, yet entirely fictional scenario using Legora: finding answers, piecing things together, and pulling together a clear output before the clock runs out.
What you'll learn
- A 10-minute intro demo to get you familiar with Legora before the clock starts
- A timed, document-heavy challenge based on a realistic scenario
- Twists, hidden clues, and the occasional "oh, that's clever" moment
- Legal Engineers on hand throughout to nudge you in the right direction
Who should join?
Whether you're in-house or at a law firm, this session is for anyone curious about Legora who learns best by doing, not watching. If you like working things out under pressure, you'll enjoy this.

Every era of legal technology has promised transformation. The first brought digitization. The second brought automation. The third is different.
Max Junestrand, CEO and Co-Founder of Legora, joins Paul Lewis OBE, Firmwide Managing Partner of Linklaters, for a candid conversation about what it actually takes to get AI working inside one of the world's leading law firms. Not the pitch, the reality: what moved adoption, what stalled it, and what changes when AI stops assisting and starts acting.
What you'll learn
- What separates firms where AI takes hold from those where it quietly dies after the pilot
- Why the shift from AI assistant to AI agent changes everything about how firms need to operate
- What a real partnership between a law firm and an AI company looks like — and why it produces better outcomes than procurement ever could
