The Danish AI startup Pandektes strengthens its board with the appointment of Martin Lavesen as board member and chairman. Martin Lavesen is Managing Partner at DLA Piper Denmark and Chairman of the Danish Bar and Law Society.
In recent years, Pandektes has established itself as a key player in the legal information search market. The company has developed an AI-driven platform that enables lawyers to search and analyze laws, court rulings, and other legal sources in Denmark, Germany and across the EU.
Pandektes supplies more than 150 law firms, private companies, and public authorities in both Denmark and Germany, and in just a few years has become a central player in the legal information search industry.
“Martin brings a unique combination of legal insight, deep industry knowledge, leadership experience, and an international network. We are in a phase where we need to scale both nationally and internationally while navigating an industry marked by tradition and regulation. Martin will help us further professionalize our business through the board work and at the same time help define our strategy,” Casper Laursen, Co-Founder & CEO, Pandektes. “Søren and I first met Martin in 2022, before we even had a real product. Back then, he listened to us, and since then he has supported us, shared valuable knowledge, and opened doors as we developed the platform. That paved the way for the concrete discussions about Martin joining the board.”
For Martin Lavesen, the decision to join Pandektes’ board is driven by a belief that Pandektes can elevate the entire industry and become the preferred tool for legal information search.
“Artificial intelligence is fundamentally changing the way we do business, it automates and optimizes processes and makes it possible to collect and analyze enormous amounts of data. The legal industry is no exception; there’s significant potential here as well in applying AI. We are in the most exciting period of technological transformation in my career, and it will be incredibly inspiring to get closer to this development as part of the team at Pandektes,” Martin Lavesen, Managing Partner, DLA Piper Denmark. “As a super interesting and innovative tech company, Pandektes has quickly and skillfully managed to position itself clearly in the Danish legal information search market, and the company now stands on the threshold of expansion into international markets. I have followed the founders since day one and now look forward to also sparring with the rest of the management team, and not least to contributing to the continued development and professionalization.”
