CyberSandbox: An Introduction to Legal Engineering

An Introduction to Legal Engineering

Wednesday, 22 May 2024 • 5:30pm to 7:30pm • at CEC's New Signal House Facilities off Fairbanks Road • Free Admission
with Ramona Tudorancea, Founder and Managing Director of JupiterBlock SEZC, and Ixian co-founder, and Kyle MacLean Smith, LexDAO/LexBlock and Ixian co-founder.

Join us for an interactive session and introduction on Legal Engineering. 

The idea of legal engineering is now 30+ years old. Starting with internet democratising access to law, legal automation and e-discovery as ways to streamline and process larger amounts of data, legal engineering is now developing more meaningfully with blockchain technology (smart contracts and code-is-law approaches) and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Ultimately, engineering is about building better systems and models, not simply digitising legacy frameworks. Innovation is increasingly changing the way we interact with Government and in business transactions, and novel technologies will soon be integrated at all levels of our society, changing our business models and corporate and social structures. With Legal Engineering, we can now design and develop new and better legal products, so that law can move towards being more value-adding instead of value-extracting. Cayman is well-known for its legal innovation and has grown into a premier offshore financial center through its pragmatic adaptation of laws. Imagine what could happen if we added new technologies to the mix!
