Legal Tech Glögit Newsletter 2/2025

Dear friends,

As we celebrate five years of legal transformation together, I want to thank each of you for the confidence and collaborative spirit you bring to our community.

In these turbulent times, the importance of our mission—to accelerate change in the legal field—cannot be overstated. As we navigate these challenging moments, it is essential to remember that our collective efforts in advancing the digitalization of our field play a crucial role in preserving the rule of law.

As mentioned in the previous newsletter, Sitra and Teknologiateollisuus ry hosted a breakfast networking event on Regulatory Technology on February 2. RegTech has high expectations, especially from small and medium-sized enterprises that need tools to boost innovative business and comply with new data economy rules and sustainability requirements. The event brought together key players in the field to explore how companies can join forces to succeed. Our next event, hosted by Linnunmaa Lex, will offer us all an opportunity to delve deeper into this topic.

I also encourage you to read an excellent post by Sari Korhonen, which examines the current era of increasing regulation and technological development, from challenges to collaborative solutions.

The FutureLaw 2025 Conference will take place on May 29-30, 2025, in Tallinn. Read more about the event below, and use the promo code GLOGIT to receive a 20% discount on the ticket price.

Last but not least, the evolving collaboration between the Swedish and Finnish Legal Transformation Networks continues to strengthen. Read Helena Hallgarn’s great post about the latest event hosted by Bird & Bird Sweden and join the new LinkedIn group to stay updated on the latest developments.

Happy reading and see you soon!

Warm regards,

Heikki

AI Nativeness vs. Grey Hairiness

In January 2025, Bird & Bird Sweden hosted a Legal Transformation Network event on the “AI Nativeness vs. Grey Hairiness”, which featured a dynamic discussion on how AI is reshaping legal practices, with a particular focus on the generational divide between “AI natives” and more experienced professionals navigating the shift.

Many thanks to everyone who attended the event and to the entire Bird & Bird team, especially Mårten Willamo and Katarina Dalunde Eriksson for hosting. Special thanks to Henri Schildt for a super insightful and fun keynote presentation. Read Helena Hallgarn’s great blog post about the event here.
