Contracts, Just Smarter - Event Reply

On 24 February 2022, LawtechUK brought together people from across sectors and professions at its ‘Contracts, just smarter’ event in London and online. The event marked the launch of LawtechUK’s Smarter Contracts report. This groundbreaking report was produced by LawtechUK and its UK Jurisdiction Taskforce (UKJT) in collaboration with a range of leading experts and provides practical examples of how technology is already being used to improve different types of contracts across commercial, financial and consumer sectors.

The event included:

• Examples of smarter contract solutions developed by companies, law firms and technology providers.

• Insights from Sir Geoffrey Vos (Master of the Rolls and Chair of the UKJT) and Professor Sarah Green (Law Commissioner, Law Commission of England and Wales) about the journey so far and what the UK is doing to support the use and development of smarter contracts.

• Thought leadership from experts about the practicalities and benefits of smarter contracts and their predictions for how smarter contracts will develop.

This event is essential for everyone who is interested in the future of contracting and seeing real-world examples of how new technologies are being used in mainstream applications to transform business and consumer activity.
