Richard Mabey quit his job as a lawyer to pursue his mission to make contracts quicker and easier to make, alter and sign.

In 2016 he launched Juro, a contract automation platform designed for lawyers and businesses, which could replace emails, programmes such as Microsoft Word and Excel, and cloud-based storage.

Last year the business processed 500,000 contracts, and Richard is aiming to make Juro the default contracts platform world-wide.

In this episode we talk about:

• How everyone can benefit from quicker contracts
• Richard's journey from lawyer to CEO
• Do established companies need more convincing about new tech solutions?
• The challenges of selling new systems
• The use of AI and natural language processing
• Does new tech like Juro lead to job cuts?
• The importance of information security
