​One of the world's oldest, richest and most protected professions is getting a serious shake-up. AI can already research cases, review contracts, conduct due diligence and draft legal work in minutes, raising some deliciously uncomfortable questions. What happens to the billable hour when work takes seconds? Who trains tomorrow's partners if AI eats the junior work? Will clients still pay £1,000 an hour for something a machine can do? Who is liable when AI gets the law wrong? What happens to privilege when confidential information passes through a model? Could AI-native law firms undercut the incumbents, and might ordinary people finally get access to legal help they could never afford before?

​A trio of brains from Kepler Wolf, Harvey AI and a special guest will look beyond the legal-tech hype to examine who wins, who loses and whether AI changes not just how lawyers work, but what a lawyer, law firm and legal service actually are.

​John Haggis, Kepler Wolf
Founder and partner at Kepler Wolf, John works across technology, media and commercial law, with a particular interest in how AI is changing legal work, pricing and the traditional law-firm model.

​Harvey
Harvey is one of the companies driving AI into professional legal work, building systems used by major law firms and businesses for research, drafting, analysis and complex legal workflows. We’ll hear what happens when AI moves from experiment to everyday legal infrastructure.

​Special guest
One more perspective is joining the room, bringing another side of a legal industry being rapidly rewritten by AI. More soon.

​WHAT IS TNN?

​TNN is a monthly breakfast for people who want to see what’s changing before everyone else does.

​For more than ten years, we’ve been asking two questions: where are the goalposts moving, and what’s actually going to matter once they do?

​We bring together people with something interesting to say, then push them to step up to the line, lean over it, and ideally not get anyone fired. No hour-long keynotes. No corporate throat-clearing. Come ready to think, provoke and connect.

​We meet over breakfast, before the day gets loud. TNN runs from 8am to 10:30am, and 8am means 8am. Long enough to matter, short enough to still make your 11 o’clock. Cowork afterwards in the brilliant cafe downstairs.

​TNN is hosted and sponsored by Box.

​WHO’S IT FOR?

​TNN attracts leaders, founders, strategists, technologists, creatives and people who want to see round corners before everyone else does. Different industries, different perspectives, same reason for being in the room.

​If you’d been coming recently, you’d have been rubbing shoulders with people from WEF, Barclays, Apple, BBC, Unilever, Ogilvy, Ipsos, Accenture, Meta, Publicis, Monzo, Samsung, alongside startup founders, media and government execs.

​PREVIOUS TNNERS

​Pulitzer Prize-winning authors, behaviour experts including Rory Sutherland (Ogilvy), Kim Scott (Radical Candour) and Nir Eyal (Hooked), alongside VCs, creative technologists, Kung-Fu Masters, senior global execs from Meta, Amazon and Google, journalists from Bloomberg to The Economist, and demos from emerging companies and startups.

​Interesting people doing interesting things, with something useful to say about what comes next.

​WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS?

​Great coffee and breakfast. Smart people. A provocation or three. Questions from the room. Useful conversations with people you probably wouldn’t otherwise meet.

​Sandler will give you a new business development skill to try, while the Paracetamol card lets you ask the entire TNN network for help with something you need. There’s also the TNN tech raffle, so please god, keep your ticket handy. Oh, and you can always pick a book from the TNN Library too. Bring a couple too!

​THREE FORMATS

​Every TNN uses one of three formats designed to provoke rather than advertise:

​SOLO: One speaker, 15–20 minutes, usually with a presentation or demo followed by audience Q&A

​FIRESIDE: A senior exec gets a light grilling for 20–30 minutes.

​TRIO: Three speakers give a ten-minute provocation each, followed by a spicy panel.

​WANT MORE? GET INSIDE TBD+

​TBD+ members get two TNN tickets every month, worth £40 alone, plus curated analyst insights, recordings of events they can’t get to thanks to Groovy Gecko, and access to the global TBD network. £50 a month or £500 for the year. Join here.

​BEWARE THE FLAKE RULE

​The only flakiness accepted at TNN is with the croissants. You can be late, but no-shows are no bueno. Seats are limited, people get turned away and speakers get up early for this. Permanent bans are now in force.

​Sound harsh? It’s meant to. If you take a seat, use it.
