Legal Tech Leaders Set to Teach Innovation and Entrepreneurship at Harvard Law

Two Harvard Law School alumni and leaders of artificial intelligence tech provider Evisort are set to teach a reading group at their alma mater on how technology is driving the digital transformation of legal and business innovation.

Jerry Ting, founder and CEO of Evisort, and its executive vice president of legal and business intelligence, Memme Onwudiwe, will be teaching the reading group, “Startup Entrepreneurship and Innovations in Legal Technology,” from March 28 through April 6.

The course will meet from 4:15 pm to 6:15 pm Monday through Wednesday and will provide students with a firm foundation on legal tech startup entrepreneurship by combining case studies, guest speakers, and supplementary readings. Leaders from law and legal operation departments from global organizations will tell how they use technology to transform business functions.

“Memme and I are incredibly excited to return to Harvard Law School as lecturers to teach this Reading Group in Spring 2022,” Ting said in a press release. “The class is a culmination of our experience in building a successful legal tech startup, and also advances our advocacy for law students and lawyers to find rewarding career paths which include legal tech and operations and alternative legal services. Evisort’s AI technology is changing how transactional law is practiced and we see ourselves as a change agent in providing creative business opportunities for lawyers.”

The group will also explore the journey of entrepreneurship through case studies and supplementary readings and leaders from venture capital, law, and legal operations departments will visit the class to provide their insight about how they use technology to drive digital transformation.

Ting founded Evisort with classmates in the Harvard Innovation Lab and an MIT graduate student in 2016. Onwudiwe founded and chaired Harvard’s Legal Technology Symposium and is on the advisory board of Innovation Law Club Africa.
