Introducing Law Is Code
Traditional players fail at teaching tech to lawyers
Legal scholars deliver academical lectures that are detached from
technical reality & day-to-day business constraints
Tech gurus provide aspirational talks that are disconnected from
the legal context
The Law Is Code Manifesto
We combine the best of law & tech to provide legal experts with
hands-on, fun & interactive trainings
Our teachers are active practitioners & their combined expertise
covers the whole spectrum of technology: software, hardware,
networks, cybersecurity, data, eMarketing & artificial intelligence

Tech for Lawyers Masterclass
Who should participate?
The masterclass is aimed at legal experts (in-house legal counsel & lawyers)
who need to have a more-than-high-level understanding of technology to better
assist companies in dealing with applicable regulations
What will participants get?
Technology is changing fast and regulation becomes more complex by the day.
Legal experts must have a firm grasp of the underlying tech concepts to provide
cutting-edge advice and ensure compliance of the business.
Our masterclass provides (finally) what legal experts deserve:
● Actionable understanding of fundamental tech concepts
● Analysis of the legal risks prompted by those technologies & review of the
contractual provisions to mitigate them
● Concrete answers to questions based on real-life use cases
