How this software company provides practical assistance to marginalised communities

In episode no. 86 I had the pleasure of speaking with John Lord, Co-founder and Chairman of long term sponsor of the podcast, Neota (formerly Neota Logic).

We discuss:

• What John wants the world to know about no-code and why;
• Some unintended consequences of no-code including hybrid working models;
• How no-code supports the democratisation of information in both commercial and public interest contexts;
• The areas of law that are suited to apps, what can be built, and how they help;
• The scope of opportunity for legal technology both in terms of market and career choices;
• The genesis of the university program that Neota now operates in 18 universities around the world and its involvement with pro bono;
• Outcomes from university 'Law Apps' courses including an example of how Neota's technology resulted in homes being repaired in a remote Aboriginal community;
• How an app assists people to have criminal records expunged in the United States;
• The meaning and relevance of the name 'Neota'; and
• John's definition of legal innovation.

Proudly sponsored by Neota Logic!
