11:50 AM Think Tank: Driving Business Value Through Legal Innovation

As companies grapple with AI, cultural readiness has emerged as a key determinant of successful AI adoption. Shifting an organisation’s mindset from scepticism to curiosity requires leadership, clear communication, and cross-functional collaboration. One of the most significant barriers to implementation is risk aversion – but does adopting AI truly demand a binary approach to risk, or is there room for informed experimentation and innovation? Join this session to discuss how companies can foster a more open, innovation-friendly culture while teams with the skills and knowledge to balance risk with opportunity.

  • Learn to assess your current culture, and how you can model curiosity and trust in AI, enabling your team to view it not as a threat but a strategic enabler.
  • Discuss how to overcome implementation hurdles with cross-functional alignment from legal, IT, operations, and business units to help demystify AI and embed it responsibly.
  • Redefine your role in the implementation of AI and shift from gatekeeper to strategic advisor, prioritising governance over paralysis.
