This 90-minute panel introduces JD students to the practice of technology law, assuming little to no prior knowledge of what tech lawyers do in practice. The discussion is structured as a conversational panel, with each segment opening with a shared question for all panellists, followed by tailored prompts that invite speakers to build on, contrast, or extend one another’s perspectives.
The panel aims to:
- Demystify what it means to work in the tech space as a lawyer;
- Expose students to multiple pathways into tech law;
- Identify skills and experiences that support success in tech-focused legal practice;
- Address common misconceptions about tech law among students.
