Where the Future of Legal Gets Built: Morae at Legal Innovation & Tech Fest 2026 | Hyatt Regency, Sydney

28–29 April, 2026

The Legal Innovation & Tech Fest is Australia’s only event that brings together hundreds of law firm leaders, senior corporate counsel, and legal technology providers under one roof. Taking place on 28–29 April 2026, the conversations, sessions, and ideas on show aren’t theoretical — they’re reshaping how legal teams operate right now. This year, Morae is proud to be part of it.

Themes across the 2026 event include the impact of generative and agentic AI, diverse business models for law firms, skills for legal professionals in a digital era, and the evolving relationship between clients and lawyers.

Back to the Future: How Your Legal Tech History Shapes Future Adoption

Matthew Crocker, Chief Strategy Officer, Morae Global — Innovation Theatre, 28 April

Before you can go anywhere, you need to know where you stand. AI adoption in legal is accelerating — but legacy processes, data decisions, and governance gaps will either enable or derail it. Matthew cuts through the noise with a practical look at operational maturity, hidden data risks, and the frameworks that make scalable, future-ready technology work.


From Spend to Insight: Legal Spend Intelligence That Saves Time and Money

Simon Meiklejohn, Managing Director, Solution Engineering, Morae — Demo Session, 28 April

Corporate legal teams need measurable savings and control. Law firms want fewer disputes and faster payment. Morae Spend Intelligence combines GenAI-powered invoice analysis with expert human oversight to deliver consistent, transparent guideline enforcement — with real-world results of 6–18% savings and an ~80% reduction in processing time.


From AI Hype to Impact: Managed AI for Legal Teams

Allan Rees-Bevan, Simon Meiklejohn & Matthew Crocker, Morae — Innovation Breakfast, 29 April

Legal teams are under pressure to adopt AI — yet few are seeing consistent, real-world results. This interactive breakfast roundtable explores Morae’s three-pillar approach to legal transformation, with a deep dive into AI Managed Services. Through real global use cases and peer discussion, attendees will explore how to turn AI ambition into measurable legal and business impact.
