Why is it important to share knowledge?

To drive innovation in the legal field it is invaluable to involve a diverse group of people that bring in new perspectives, ideas, and moreover the user perspective of interacting with the law. Although more and more legal tech is developed and legal design thinking is in the rise, we believe there is still a lot to be done in order to create a real systemic change in order to make the justice system accessible to everyone.

Sharing knowledge and creating a mindset and culture shift are one of the key drivers for change. Design thinking and technology can help to pick up the ideas that elicit from new crossover collaborations and make them concrete to implement the change in order to make it sustainable and scalable.

Therefore, we invite you all, regardless of your discipline, expertise, age, level of education and other potential different factor, to join our community and share your experience and knowledge with legal design thinking, professional expertise and personal experience with the law and connect to likeminded people! If you would like to dive in into legal design thinking and creating visual contracts, take a look to our Monthly Meet-ups, check our blog or download the template of the contract for results on the Academy page.
