LAItech2025: Digital Governance, Legal Innovation, and Future-Ready Talent

Our CEO, Laura Kask, recently took part in LAItech2025 at TalTech Law School, joining Florian Marcus and Sandra Särav for a panel discussion on the evolving landscape of digitalization.

The conversation focused on the foundations and future of digital governance, the legal implications of emerging technologies, and the real-world challenges of navigating innovation in the public sector.

Here are a few key reflections from the panel:

• Striking a balance between encouraging innovation and preventing overregulation remains one of the biggest challenges. Too much restriction slows progress; too little creates instability.

• The European Union continues to lead in setting global digital standards: from digital identity frameworks and data protection to emerging AI regulation.

• Trust is essential. Building successful digital societies requires more than strong government leadership, it demands genuine public-private collaboration. Digital service monopolies by the state are not just ineffective but often financially unsustainable.

• Laura’s advice to the next generation of legal professionals: “Don’t limit yourself to traditional legal careers just because you studied law. A legal education is an excellent foundation for any field – think broadly and explore the world.”

We’re grateful to the LAItech team for organizing such a thoughtful and future-facing event, bringing together voices from law, technology, and public policy. Events like this play a vital role in shaping more resilient and innovative digital governance for the years ahead.
