Much of the last month has been a whirlwind that has taken its collective toll and shifted priorities. That said, Israel’s economy, innovation, and strong relationships continue to be front and center, and should not be forgotten.
Delayed as other concerns took over, our September IsraelDesks Magazine is now available online. Among the multiple topics covered, we explore the relationship between the UK and Israel, which signed the 2030 Roadmap for UK-Israeli Bilateral Relations in March 2023 to economic, security, and technology ties. We take a deep dive into the growth of Artificial Intelligence, its use, opportunities, and challenges for those in the legal sector, with the news that ChatGPT, one year on, is being used by 100m people – even amidst recent turmoil that saw the exit of CEO Sam Altman.
Lawyers in the know also weigh in on recent trends in both capital markets(lawyers from Bird & Bird, Mayer Brown, and Carter Ledyard & Milburn) and real estate (Herrick, Feinstein LLP, Asserson, Aird & Berlis of Canada, Taylor Wessing, Charles Russell Speechlys). Benjamini & Co. discusses a Bill proposing new definitions around Israeli residency for tax payers, Yossi Ben-Dror examines the legal aspects of Smart Contracts, and The Luzzatto Group explores the Israeli IP attracting investors to the vibrant femtech, foodtech, and agritech sectors.
We will be opening the latest Israel Desks League Tables – now in its 5th year – and invite those global law firms with Israel-related work and clients in 2023 to submit. A post will be published shortly; emails will also be sent out; or direct message me for more information.
