Law.com is expanding its flagship Legalweek franchise into Asia through a new partnership with the Singapore Academy of Law, marking a significant investment in the rapidly growing legal technology market across the Asia-Pacific region.
Following the huge success of Legalweek in New York, Legalweek Asia will host an international legal technology conference and exhibition that will debut on 28-29 September 2027 at Singapore’s Sands Expo & Convention Centre.
The move brings the Legalweek brand, which organisers describe as the world’s largest legal technology event, into APAC for the first time and builds on the established platform of TechLaw.Fest, the Singapore Academy of Law’s annual legal innovation conference.
Under the partnership, TechLaw.Fest will serve as an anchor programme within Legalweek Asia, allowing the new event to draw on an existing community while expanding its international reach and commercial footprint.
TechLaw.Fest has attracted more than 26,000 participants over its 11 editions and has become a prominent fixture on the global legal technology conference circuit. Organisers said the integration with LegalWeek is intended to create a larger platform for education, networking, dealmaking, thought leadership and technology showcases.
The inaugural LegalWeek Asia is expected to attract more than 4,000 attendees from across the region and internationally, alongside more than 100 sponsors and legal technology companies.
Nick Brailey, CEO of Centellic, Law.com’s parent company, said the partnership reflected both Singapore’s status as a leading financial centre and the growing importance of legal innovation across Asia.
“We are thrilled to partner with the Singapore Academy of Law, an organisation that has established TechLaw.Fest as a respected destination for legal innovation in Asia,” Brailey said in a statement. “This partnership allows us to expand LegalWeek, the world’s largest legal technology event, across Asia-Pacific, bringing together the region’s most forward-thinking legal professionals, innovators and business leaders.”
Brailey added that Singapore was the natural location for the event and said Law.com intended to make LegalWeek Asia a major forum for legal technology advancement throughout the region.
Centellic plans to make a substantial investment in building the event’s international audience, exhibition floor and exhibitor base. The partnership also reflects Singapore’s growing prominence as a destination for major conferences and industry gatherings.
The expansion comes as legal technology investment continues to accelerate globally, driven by advances in generative artificial intelligence, legal operations technology and the increasing digital transformation of law firms and in-house legal departments.
