Legal Innovation: The Mills Oakley Accelerator Pitch Night
Emerging technologies such as automation, artificial intelligence and the blockchain are transforming the way businesses operate - and the legal services sector is no exception. Legal services disruption in Australia is imminent as the industry shifts toward affordable and standardised services, unlocking a new market for disruptors and incumbents alike.
Collective Campus has partnered with Mills Oakley, one of Australia’s most progressive law firms, to establish the Mills Oakley Accelerator and bring together forward-thinking startups. The accelerator offers an end-to-end innovation program for new law entrepreneurs and startups that culminates in a 13-week incubator program aimed at equipping winning teams with the funding, knowledge, tools and support to give their idea the best chance of success.
A shortlist of nine startups from over 30 applications were invited to participate in a three-day bootcamp at Collective Campus covering innovation theory, design thinking, lean startup, marketing and other areas.
On day one of the program the crew were joined by Brennan Ong via video, founder of Law Advisor, for an inspirational talk from one of Australia's biggest legal startups that in the past year alone has raised well over $1M.
The program culminated in a pitch night at Mills Oakley before a judging panel consisting of legal sector and startup experts.
