About the Center

In an age of rapid technological change, law schools play a key role in understanding how this innovation transforms society, and how lawyers and laws can meet the resulting challenges.

The Center for Law and Transformational Technology at Drexel University’s Thomas R. Kline School of Law brings together key stakeholders, including legal and technological scholars, industry leaders, activists, regulators and other experts from across the country and the world. The Center supports concrete efforts to gauge the legal impact of transformational technology, promote critical conversations about the role of law in technological change and bring legal experts into interdisciplinary conversations with researchers and developers at all stages of design and development.

Working across industries, the Center helps educate lawyers to play a positive role navigating a technological landscape we cannot yet imagine. By facilitating international and multi-disciplinary partnerships, the Center seeks to contribute to a future in which technology moves forward hand-in-hand with society.
