LLI Book Publication (Springer):
“Designing Tomorrow’s Legal – A Common Legal Platform”
The second book edition of “Liquid Legal” (Springer) collects insights from a wide range of legal institutions and practitioners (law firms, in-house lawyers, LegalTech companies, universities, consultancies, and associations) in order to “design tomorrow’s legal”. While the LLI and the book itself are already a kind of platform which allows for collaboration and exchange, many of the 30+ articles also promote the vision of a technological “Common Legal Platform” that could provide standards for digitalizing the legal industry. Other article topics range from legislation on AI, machine learning and Blockchain and Legal Tech in general to new methods such as legal design and Agile and to legal operations, legal education and the future of law.

Standardization of a Share Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) for small and mid-CAP transactions
A team of experts, including but not limited to in-house legal departments, law firms, banks, legal designers and universities, aims to create a wildly accepted Standard SPA for small- and mid-size private M&A transactions. Such Standard SPA template will provide generic document structure and basic T&C’s, and in addition guidance on relevant aspects of the M&A transaction such as a fair and balanced allocation of risks and responsibilities.

Forum for the Future Legal Education
In this Forum, a group of international professionals, representing law schools and other educational institutions as well as legal departments, law firms, lawyers, bar associations and students aim to:
- identify current gaps in education of legal professionals in light of digital transformation,
- establish the core content of a curriculum that augments today’s legal education, and
- create a set of courses and material (e.g., online keynotes, seminars and lectures, as well as hands-on lab courses) for each topic of the curriculum.
The combined output of the Forum shall serve as an orientation for stakeholders in legal education as to what content needs to be covered. The Forum shall also enable them to leverage immediately the results to support their respective current initiatives (be it general education or executive education). The online keynotes shall be available to the whole legal ecosystem to address the gaps in current education.
