IE Law School hosted a session on 25 November with Gabe Pereyra, Co-Founder and President of Harvey, in an event organized by the LawAhead Center on the Legal Profession.
Harvey, a generative AI platform tailored to the legal sector, is transforming how law firms and academic institutions approach research, training, and the delivery of legal services.

He emphasized that generative AI will continue to accelerate in capability,

This session forms part of AI and the Law, IE Law School’s initiative dedicated to examining the impact of artificial intelligence on the legal profession through education, research, and engagement with the global legal community.
