On today’s episode of LegalTechTalk Uncovered 2025, we have the pleasure of speaking with Alice Flacco. She is the General Counsel at Microport Scientific, overseeing global legal operations. Speaking at LegaTechTalk 2025, she emphasised the need for legal professionals to embrace technology as a tool for efficiency, not a threat. Alice highlighted the evolving role of GCs as strategic leaders, likening them to orchestra directors managing both tech and human expertise. Despite her demanding role, she advocates making time for conferences to stay connected, learn, and grow. Her key focus is freeing up time to think by leveraging legal ops and innovation.
