In-house committee’s event to focus on AI
The Law Society’s In-house and Public Sector Committee and Law Society Professional Training are to hold their annual panel discussion next month.
The event will take place in Blackhall Place on Wednesday 1 May (2pm-4.30pm).
This year’s theme is ‘Innovating and leading in transformative times’, with a focus on AI and the practical implications and usage for in-house solicitors and the organisations and businesses they serve across the public and private sectors.
The discussion will also cover the topic of the in-house solicitor’s skillset being transferable to other non-legal roles.
Chair and panellists
The event is worth 2.5 CPD hours (by group study) – one general CPD hour and 1.5 hours for professional development and solicitor wellbeing.
Solicitor Alison Bradshaw (head of credit legal services, AIB) will chair the discussion.
The panellists are:
- Tom Heerey (assistant general counsel, Microsoft),
- Davinia Conlan (country head, Citi Ireland),
- Niamh Hodnett (Online Safety Commissioner, Coimisiún na Meán),
- Amy Ball (business-transformation leader, PWC), and
