LexisNexis is significantly enhancing its presence in the Middle East and GCC through a multi-million-dollar investment focused on technology, content localisation, and product development. This initiative is designed to assist legal professionals in navigating the complex regulatory landscape of the region. Building on over a decade of operations, LexisNexis aims to localise its Lexis+ platform with Protégé, a legal AI solution that provides tailored regional legal content and workflows. Unlike generic AI tools, LexisNexis ensures its platform is grounded in verified legal sources, thereby supporting everyday legal operations across various jurisdictions. As regional governments ramp up their digital transformation efforts, LexisNexis is poised to play a pivotal role in the evolving legal landscape of the Middle East. Eric Bonnet-Maes, President CEMEA, emphasised the importance of trust and compliance in the legal sector's adoption of AI technologies, while Lara Salem, Head of Content Strategy for LexisNexis Middle East, highlighted the company's commitment to combining authoritative content with advanced AI capabilities. To further this goal, LexisNexis is implementing a 'Preach and Teach' educational initiative aimed at empowering legal practitioners to embrace AI responsibly and effectively.
