Where Should In-House AI Actually Live?

​Hosted by Harvey Legal Innovation Partners: Farrah Pepper Dominic Ferullo

​Most conversations about in-house AI focus on legal work. An even bigger opportunity is often at the edges, where legal sits next to finance, procurement, HR, compliance, and the business. The in-house teams getting the most from AI are treating legal as a connector across functions, not a silo.

​This session works through where those opportunities are, what it takes to play that role, and what shifts inside the legal team when it does. You'll leave with a map of where to look next inside your own organisation

​Key Takeaways:

• ​Where in-house legal teams are creating value at the edges of the function, not the centre

• ​What it takes for in-house legal to be invited into cross-functional AI conversations, and what changes inside the team when it happens

• ​A starting map for in-house teams of where to look for cross-functional AI opportunities

​Expertly facilitated by Harvey's Legal Innovation Partner team, The Thinking Room provides workshop attendees with the space to explore deeply some of the most important questions for lawyers, law firms and in-house teams in the AI era.

​This session is part of LegalTechTalk 2026, Europe’s Event for Legal Transformation. A dynamic, annual in-person festival bringing together 5,500+ attendees from 75+ countries and over 400 industry-leading speakers across two days, on 17-18 June 2026 at InterContinental London - The O2.
