What does it take to build a legal tech startup? How are lawyers using AI now, and how will they use it five and ten years from now? Join Pablo Arredondo, Co-Founder of CaseText and now Vice President at Thomson Reuters following the company’s 2023 acquisition, in conversation with Jon Choi, visiting faculty at HLS and James Carr Professor of Law at Washington University in St. Louis and Co-Founder of Solomon AI, as they discuss entrepreneurship, AI, and the future of the legal profession. From finding the right idea, to securing early funding, to scaling AI products that lawyers actually use, this conversation will pull back the curtain on how legal tech actually works. Whether you’re considering founding a startup or are curious about how AI is reshaping legal practice, come join the discussion. Registration Required. Lunch will be provided. This event is co-sponsored by BKC and the Library Innovation Lab (LIL)
