Lexpo - where the legal market meets
Since 2016, Lexpo has been the meeting point for the Continental European legal community.
On 15 and 16 March 2027, Lexpo returns for two days on how legal work is changing, and what that means for the people responsible for it. That responsibility does not sit on a single desk: someone sets the direction, someone makes it work in practice, and someone stands behind the result.
What sets Lexpo apart is who is in the room. Law firms and in-house legal teams sit together with the technology providers who serve them, which is what makes it possible to work through the questions that neither side can answer alone.
Looking back at Lexpo’26

Taking Charge - Direction, delivery and value
Legal technology has stopped promising and started delivering. Systems now draft, analyse and increasingly act on their own, and the question is no longer whether to adopt them, but who stays in charge of the work, its value, and the data it runs on. That question sits on both sides of the legal market. Law firms must decide who takes responsibility for work that technology helped produce, and what it is worth when it takes a fraction of the time. Legal departments must decide the same about their own function, what it is worth to the business and what it should now be doing itself. Neither side can answer alone, because every decision reshapes the other's expectations, which is why Lexpo brings them into the same room.
