Last date for submission of paper: unknown; Contact person: Faculty of Law; Speaker: Mark Smith (University of Cambridge)This interactive session will begin with an examination of the market dynamics currently transforming the legal profession. We trace the adoption of operational excellence and technology principles to the underlying drivers, and begin to form hypotheses about what this means for the future. Through the lens of the business model, we then begin to explore different possibilities for the law firm of the future and think through what this means for clients, lawyers and other business professionals.3CL runs the 3CL Travers Smith Lunchtime Seminar Series, featuring leading academics from the Faculty, and high-profile practitioners.
