Welcome to Lawtomation!
We are witnessing an unyielding process of automation of contractual relationships, legal services, and administrative proceedings. Algorithms and artificial intelligence (AI) are employed to execute decisional tasks in workplaces and to enforce regulatory measures in many legal sectors. Automated decision-making is here to stay, affecting all aspects of our lives and challenging existing frameworks.
IE Law School is proud to announce the inaugural event of the Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence for Law and Automation (“Lawtomation JMCoE”).
To launch the activities of the Centre, a multidisciplinary conference will be held on 29 and 30 September 2022. Its aim is to explore the relationship between law and automation, as well as the impact of algorithms and AI on constitutional values, human rights, workplace practices and legal remedies.
The two day conference will take place in a face-to-face format at the IE Tower in Madrid, Spain. Inspiring talks given by keynote speakers will be followed by thematic sessions (public law, private law, law and tech, labour law, law and policy, among others) and social events.
