"To keep the legal market future-proof, innovation and inclusion cannot be overlooked. For me, innovation means being able to change perspectives in order to develop solutions that lead to a simple and sustainable access to justice and that actually work. It is time to look beyond the traditional legal horizon - for this, interdisciplinary approaches around legal innovation are inevitable."
