Hot Topics Report

Eventful People conduct research, which includes a series of round table discussions with law-firms and in-house lawyers who are passionate about driving innovation within their business function. The attendees represent a wide range of industries from across the country and through these discussions, we identify the common challenges, concerns, and areas of interest within the legal community.

These Community Snapshots provides a summary of the key talking points among legal professionals in South Africa currently. The themes identified will form the foundation for the agenda for the Legal Innovation & Tech Fest Conference, taking place in November 2025.

2025 Advisory Committee

Our Advisory Committees, comprised of seasoned Legal leaders, will guide the agenda for the Legal Innovation & Tech Fest. We’re excited to collaborate with these experts to shape the event’s vision and purpose.
