The future ready legal team: Our takeaways from Crafty Fest: Europe
Marijke Armstrong, LOD’s Director, Client Solutions, shares her key takeaways after speaking on the panel of ‘The future ready legal team’ at the first ever Crafty Fest: Europe.

In the past, in-house legal teams were seen as the ‘firefighters’, ‘the department of no’, ‘compliance gatekeepers’, or simply a cost centre.
