Event Information
Following on from the Digital Transformation Project Masterclass Series in 2024, we are pleased to announce a special one off day of training sessions addressing software development and deployment with a focus on open source and AI. Please find the full programme below.
This event also concludes our Open Source Software Masterclass Series, but for the sessions listed below, we’ve broadened the focus to ensure they are suitable for in-house lawyers and compliance specialists, even if they haven’t attended the first part of the course.
Register your interest to secure your in-person place. Attendance is available for the full day, or for either the morning or afternoon sessions. Don’t miss this excellent opportunity to discuss the latest Open Source insights and network with peers in the tech law community.
