Gaps in support are especially pervasive in countries where digital transformation and AI in the legal sector are more nascent. Lack of mentorship affects women's career paths, professional development, and success and amplifies challenges they face as entrepreneurs and in addressing the social impact goals many aspire to affect. The Lex 2X Exec™ mentorship program for women in law responds to these findings. It is supported by women leading AI transformation in law as founders and CEO's of legal tech companies, AI governance leaders, and legal innovation leaders worldwide. Lex 2X Exec Participants can access: Personalized 1 to 1 mentoring where they are matched with an experienced leader to gain first-had perspectives on their professional development or career goals or to jump start their entrepreneurial journey.

As AI transforms how justice is accessed, delivered, and governed, new systems, institutions, and solutions are being built at an unprecedented pace. The practitioners leading this work in government, courts, tech nonprofits, justice techs, civil society, and academia are navigating an emerging field with few established pathways, limited peer networks, and uneven access to the innovation expertise and support the work demands. The Justice Hive is Lady Justice Initiative's global hub for these practitioners. It catalyzes and capacitates their work through a hive-based approach that democratizes access to innovation expertise, resources, and support.   What is Inside the Justice Hive?

The opportunity and potential for impact are unprecedented. Despite the moment's promise, as women legal leaders-whether legal tech CEOs, mid-career lawyers, or business professionals pursuing their next leadership opportunity-know, the path to capturing these opportunities is complex and often filled with barriers and challenges. These challenges are amplified by the velocity and nature of AI transformation and misalignment between the demands of this context and support offered by traditional institutions. Traditional strategies for leadership development and professional growth such as executive education, generic leadership programs, and professional conferences are no longer enough. They simply do not meet the moment. This is why we have created Lex 2X Exec | the first purpose-built global leadership network for women in the AI era of law.

The AI Era of Law is Here Will You Lead It? AI is transforming legal systems, organizations, products, and the profession worldwide. It is reshaping how legal work gets done, how people access law, and how justice is delivered. It is also redefining leadership in law and even what it means to be a legal professional. This transformation can deepen existing inequities or become the greatest opportunity in over a century to build something better. The outcome depends on who leads this new era in law and what they build. Lady Justice Initiative exists to shape both: more women leading AI transformation and transformation that serves justice. What We Do We support two interconnected initiatives shaping the AI era of law.

AI for Breakfast City Circles for Women in Law support local communities around the world where women in law will build leadership capabilities for the AI era, gain AI competency, build local networks, share intelligence, access business opportunities, and build community. The opportunities and challenges of AI transformation in law span multiple dimensions: how to position careers for a future being built in real time, capture entrepreneurial and societal opportunities, and shape the policy conversations that will guide its course. The pace of change has outpaced traditional models for connection and learning. City Circles are built to foster continuous, trusted peer engagement across institutions and sectoral lines. Circles offer a third space, distinct from places of employment and traditional professional communities, where women come together for peer collaboration, intelligence sharing, and exploring the opportunities and challenges of AI transformation. Circles convene women across the legal ecosystem in select global cities, including legal professionals (law firms, in-house, judiciary), legal technologists and innovators, business professionals in law-adjacent roles, nonprofit and access-to-justice leaders, public sector and policy professionals, academics, and entrepreneurs.

Alongside these convenings, on July 8, Lady Justice Initiative along with Lawyers Hub, CAIDP, and Trust Valley will host an AI for Breakfast Global Circle for Women. The Circle will bring together an intimate group of women peers working in law, policy, and AI governance, drawn from those present for the global meetings and from the Swiss legal community, to connect and exchange experiences on the opportunities and challenges they are navigating. AI is moving faster, and reaching further, than any single leader can navigate alone, which makes peer connection and collaboration essential. AI transformation is also posing unique challenges and creating distinct opportunities for women in law-related roles, from how careers are evolving to the shape of policy, institutions, and legal solutions. The Global Circle will be a space for them to connect, share intelligence, and collaborate. Join us in Geneva on 8 July.

The series surveys each country's AI transformation strategy: policy and regulatory frameworks, digital infrastructure, institutional and human capacity, private sector ecosystem and examines how these developments intersect with the justice sector and access to justice. Southeast Asia is home to more than 680 million people, the world's fifth-largest combined economy, and one of its fastest-growing digital markets. Existing scans in ASEAN typically evaluate governance maturity and ecosystem development without examining how AI intersects with the justice sector. This series addresses that gap by connecting national AI strategy, digital infrastructure, and market development with justice sector transformation and innovations in justice solutions within a single analytical framework. Each country brief also overviews the current state of women's participation in the AI ecosystem and related policy developments.

The same institutions that AI governance and justice depend on are under pressure, yet these conversations often remain siloed. This issue scans how democratic erosion, AI competence in justice systems, and AI governance intersect—highlighting flaws in model design and the emergence of new treaty frameworks that can support a response. Two major reports document the scale of democratic and rule‑of‑law decline. At the same time, the judiciary faces external threats to its independence and an AI competency gap at the precise moment its role matters most. New research argues that prevailing approaches to building “AI for democracy” are fundamentally flawed and proposes a new methodology. And the first binding international AI treaty has entered into force, pairing AI‑specific obligations with a human rights, democracy, and rule‑of‑law impact assessment framework that offers an integrated response to the current context.

The launch coincides with CSW70, the UN Commission on the Status of Women's 70th Session, held under the theme of strengthening access to justice for all women and girls. The dashboard addresses a persistent visibility gap: women leaders harnessing tech to meet urgent legal needs and drive transformational change, yet systematically underrepresented in the data, the convenings, and the investments that define the Field. It maps tech-enabled solutions across critical areas — divorce, gender-based violence, employment, immigration, and trusts and estates —and highlights the ecosystem builders advancing the field. The dashboard is part of a broader LJI-JTA collaboration to advance women building the future of justice and includes an awareness campaign featuring justice tech founders and nonprofit leaders, and Justice Circles peer advisory group coaching circles. The dashboard will be updated on a rolling basis. Nominations, corrections, and additions are welcome.

For the first time, it measured not just what laws exist but how they work in practice. The findings confirmed deep and broad inequalities. Fewer than 5% of women worldwide live in economies providing full legal equality. In roughly 80% of countries where violence protection laws exist, enforcement is ineffective. Less than half of countries provide women equal access to finance. Only half the policies needed to implement laws already on the books are in place globally. No countries have fully achieved gender equality in legal frameworks under Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) measures. As world leaders gather for the 70th UN Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) to consider how to bring rights and justice to all women and girls, action must include maximizing the historic opportunity of AI transformation to address current gaps. Why does AI transformation represent a unique historic opportunity to address women's legal inequality and why must it be seized now? Three dynamics make this moment distinct. First, legal systems and institutions – already among the most conservative in any society – rarely change through incremental pressure. They change through disruption. AI delivers this a top speed. Second, AI transformation requires building new infrastructure, systems, and solutions. This institution-building is an opportunity to correct structural flaws embedded in current institutions; if it isn’t taken, we risk encoding them at scale. Third, deployed with intention, AI holds extraordinary potential to close... - Published: 2026-03-09 - Modified: 2026-04-27 - URL: https://www.ladyjusticeinitiative.org/lex-2x-peer-advisory-group-circles-discovery-session/ - Categories: Past Events Women shaping the AI transformation of law are not just navigating change — they are determining what the sector and profession becomes. That is a historic position to occupy. And it belongs to every woman in law working at this intersection, regardless of where she sits. Legal professionals leading in the AI era of law are not short of conversation about transformation. The volume of conferences, research, and industry commentary is high. What is harder to find is the kind of strategic and tactical leadership insight essential to day-to-day navigation of a context that is both dynamic and genuinely novel. Because our goal is to power women in law in leading and benefiting from AI transformation, we have looked carefully at proven methodologies for delivering results-oriented support. We have also drawn on expertise in leading in fast and fluid environments where no one has a playbook for what that means for leadership and learning. What did the evidence point to? The power of peers. Peers operating at the same level of complexity are a vital resource in times of change. And the peer advisory model — where small peer groups work in a structured format facilitated by a credentialed executive coach — is among the most evidence-based tools in executive and leadership development. Its value compounds when the peers share not just a domain, like law, but a specific, high-stakes moment inside it.

There's a reason it feels so immense: it is. AI's impact on law is systemic—and the transformation it's precipitating is architectural. Education, work, legal practice, how justice is delivered, how AI is governed, and rule of law are increasingly intertwined. Viewing any of these from a silo is no longer enough. The context demands a systems-level view. Leaders who see the connections will shape what comes next. We're here to connect the dots and provide the intelligence layer this moment demands. That's why we've created "The Brief" a curated scan of the signals, reports, and happenings that demand executive foresight in the AI era of law. Welcome to The Brief —a scan of the strategic signals, reports, and happenings that demand executive foresight in the AI era of law. This week’s throughline: governance, risk, trust, and safety. AI is reshaping the calculus between states, introducing autonomous agents into legal and economic systems, and transforming the workforce. Yet institutions responsible for oversight and accountability are still catching up. This edition moves from the geopolitical to the operational to the societal: power between nations. how agents negotiate with each other, safety science, corporate disclosure, the workforce transition in practice, and public trust.

As AI and other tech transform law, women are leading some of the most important innovations in the sector. They are pioneering business models and operations in law firms, building AI-powered tech in legal departments and legal aid organizations, founding legal tech companies, and transforming how justice is delivered in the age of AI. Yet the vast majority are doing so without the support needed to accelerate their success and bring their innovations to markets, organizations, and people. Lady Justice Initiative’s research examining the experiences of women across 31 countries who are driving AI and other innovation in law reveals a troubling pattern: 67% of women in the field lack access to mentors. 2 If you’re among them, you already know what this costs. The absence of accessible mentors makes already challenging work such as pioneering new approaches in traditional organizations or building companies in an environment where women’s access to capital is around 2 percent, even more daunting, slow, and costly. Our findings highlight not only an individual problem, but also a systemic gap in mentorship with sector-wide implications. The gap surfaced by our research reveals a critical vulnerability for the legal sector. With AI poised to reshape the industry, much remains uncertain.

The five pillars framing this week's global discussions: 1) cooperation in a contested world; 2) unlocking new sources of growth; 3) investing in people; 4) deploying innovation responsibly; 5) building prosperity within planetary boundaries hold particular urgency for those charting the future of law. This Davos 2026 series explores select pillars through the lens of AI transformation in law and offers insights on what leaders must do to seize the opportunities ahead. Cooperation in a Contested World The legal sector has long been a critical space for multilateral cooperation. Through bar associations, judicial and legal education networks, and cross-border professional bodies, legal communities have built frameworks for addressing shared challenges—from harmonizing commercial law to advancing human rights to promoting the rule of law across diverse political systems. This tradition of cooperation has shaped both business and social progress globally, fostering mutual understanding even amid geopolitical tension. The Global Cooperation Barometer 2026, released by the World Economic Forum and McKinsey & Company,1 reveals that despite fragmentation and geopolitical tensions, global cooperation has proven remarkably resilient—but its form is shifting. Traditional multilateral frameworks are giving way to smaller, more agile coalitions. Cooperation in law is evolving too and expanding to include new types of coalitions as the AI era of law emerges.

The AI era of law is calling for a different kind of leader. Technical skills won't be enough. Neither will legal expertise alone. The leaders who will define the next decade—whether building legal tech ventures, leading organizational transformation or positioning themselves for what's next are those who can navigate change, build strategic alignment, foster collaboration, and make decisions with incomplete information.

AI is bringing to life a new era of law and a historic opportunity to reimagine legal systems, institutions, and solutions and build new ones centered on justice and equality. The possibilities are immense. Seizing them requires urgent action to ensure that transformation is inclusive. For Lady Justice Initiative, this means powering more women in law to lead transformation. Without intentional investment, women risk being sidelined in yet another technological revolution and from building the systems that will define law for decades to come. When we interviewed 100+ women legal tech founders and innovation leaders, we discovered a pattern: many left traditional legal roles in search of greater opportunity—to lead at a higher level, deepen their impact, gain flexibility, and bring innovations to life. These women are now building the new era of law, harnessing AI to make legal services more accessible, courts more efficient, and education more effective. As AI transforms the sector, women across law have an opportunity to join them in leading the new era. Supporting them isn't just about equity. It's essential to maximizing AI's potential to solve complex legal problems, accelerate innovation, catalyze professional opportunity for women in law, and design new era workplaces that meet their needs. We also believe that new systems and solutions must be built to make justice "native" not an afterthought.

Small or large? Small and mighty is okay. Maybe even better in some ways. It’s the structure that matters. The types of connections in a network and “the connections” of those connections matter more than sheer size of the network. For example, a contact with an investor who focuses on your sector is more important than numerous finance contacts who don’t support your sector. Centrality is key Multiple studies point to importance of networks characterized by close contacts. Having a close group of people with whom you interact frequently is best. (Yang and Chawla. 2019) According to a recent study by the US based women’s leadership group Chief: closeness and Frequency of Contact Matters.

With AI projected to transform legal services, women legal tech founders and innovation executives around the globe are innovating and designing legal solutions for the AI era of law. As their ventures multiply at unprecedented rates and industry growth rockets, many continue to face challenges and barriers in attaining success. The factors contributing to this are complex and layered. Legal tech sits at the intersection of law, tech, and finance, fields where women are underrepresented and lack power, resulting in an array of challenges and barriers. Many of these, such as access to finance, have been well discussed. Another by-product of this context has received less attention: women’s underrepresentation in key spaces in each of these fields undermines the strength of the networks and social capital vital to the success of their ventures. For women legal tech leaders, networks and social capital are pivotal to changing the current trajectory and capturing historic opportunities. The Research is Unequivocal: Networks are Critical Drivers of Success Academic and industry research is clear: while all businesses need strong networks, they are especially vital for founders. Research shows that women-owned businesses who actively leverage networking see significant improvements in firm performance (Wambui & Muathe, 2021).
