AI and the Future of Legal Practice: Exclusive Lunch & Learn in Singapore
On the 19th May 2026, we brought together some of the sharpest legal minds in Singapore for an afternoon of real conversation about where the legal industry is headed — and how AI is getting it there faster.
Our exclusive Lunch & Learn at CALI, Ascott Raffles Place, Singapore was a collaboration between Business Network Solutions, CoreMatter, and iManage, designed for Partners and C-Suite leaders who are serious about the strategic impact of AI in legal practice.
What We Talked About
The legal industry is no stranger to change, but the pace of AI adoption is unlike anything we’ve seen before. The afternoon was centred on one big question: how do legal leaders move from awareness to action?
The discussions were candid, the questions were sharp, and the room brought the kind of energy that only happens when the right people are in the same space. From document management transformation with iManage to practice operations built on CoreMatter, attendees got a front-row look at what a truly AI-powered legal firm can look like today.
Introducing Tanya CoreMatter
One of the standout moments of the afternoon was the introduction of Tanya CoreMatter — CoreMatter’s new AI intelligence built specifically for law firm partners.
Tanya pulls directly from your firm’s own data to deliver instant answers on billing, profitability, and overall financial performance. No more digging through reports before a partner meeting. Just clear, trusted insights when you need them.
What makes Tanya different is that it is built with governance and explainability at its core — every insight is grounded in your firm’s actual CoreMatter data, so partners can verify what they see and stay in control of every decision. It is AI that works for the firm, not around it.
“Think of it as having the answers to every question behind every partner meeting — delivered in seconds.”
As AI ecosystems continue to evolve, Tanya is also designed to grow with them, ensuring firms can adopt new capabilities without compromising on operational integrity or data security.
Why Events Like This Matter
The biggest barrier to AI adoption in legal is not the technology. It is the lack of trusted, peer-to-peer conversations about what actually works. Events like this one create a space for legal leaders to ask the tough questions, challenge assumptions, and walk away with practical clarity, not just buzzwords.
If you were in the room last Tuesday, thank you. Your curiosity and willingness to engage with these conversations is exactly what moves the needle for the industry.
What’s Next
This is just the beginning. We are committed to creating more opportunities for legal leaders across the region to connect, learn, and explore what AI-powered practice management looks like in action.
Watch this space, there is more to come.
