Today's in-house lawyers must have multifaceted knowledge, have continuous training and, in addition, have knowledge of legal tech for the proper management of the company's legal operations.

Human resources departments are responsible for a wide variety of bureaucratic and administrative processes in companies. This usually means countless documents to collaborate and work on, before signing and storing them.

Contractual risk exists at every stage of contracts, but organisations can anticipate and mitigate it through Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) technology.
