Legora, a Swedish legal software startup, hired Zeynep Inanoglu Ozdemir as its first chief marketing officer to persuade lawyers to adopt its products. Lawyers are described as cautious and busy, so the role focuses on building trust and demonstrating that law is changing and Legora can shape that future. Legora is scaling quickly, growing from 40 to 400 employees, and onboarding new recruits globally. The company targets a multibillion-dollar market for tools lawyers use for contract drafting and legal research. It has added elite law firms as customers, raised over $850 million, and reached a $5.6 billion valuation while competing with Harvey, valued at $11 billion.
"The company is chasing a multibillion-dollar opportunity to sell the software that lawyers use to get work done, like contract drafting and legal research. It's added elite law firms like Cleary Gottlieb and HSF Kramer as customers. Investors like Accel and General Catalyst, meanwhile, have rallied around Legora's hard-charging founder, Max Junestrand."
