Twenty years ago, a cross-campus team spanning Stanford Law School and the Computer Science Department came together to lay one of the cornerstones of today’s legal-tech ecosystem: CodeX – The Stanford Center for Legal Informatics.

CodeX recently marked two decades of pioneering work ...at the intersection of the legal system and technology. The centerpiece of the celebratory week was the annual, all-day FutureLaw conference on April 10, a standing-room-only event that, for the last 12 years, has brought together global leaders in legal technology, artificial intelligence, and computational law.
