Meet Your New AI Assistant
Earlier this year, I wrote here on LinkedIn about the power of agentic AI, predicting that in 2025 the workplace would need to adjust to a whole new kind of worker: Generation AI Agent, as agentic AI continues to transform industries.
When PUMA Group released an advertisement created entirely by AI agents.
This rapid transformation is being fueled by VC-backed innovation, and in the latest edition of my newsletter, Venture Legal: Where Capital Meets Legal Innovation, I take a closer look at a major milestone: ServiceNow’s nearly $3 billion acquisition of the agentic AI company Moveworks.

Thinking Outside the “LegalTech” Box
What do FinTech, DefenseTech, Procurement, and Cybersecurity have in common? These areas can all be viewed as part of a wider LegalTech ecosystem, where legal teams increasingly intersect with multiple functions.
