The legal technology companies are graduates of the firm’s incubator

UK firm invests in two start-ups
Mishcon de Reya has invested in two of the start-ups that went through the firm’s MDR LAB incubator.

Last May, six companies that develop products and services connected to the legal industry were welcomed by the firm into its incubator. The companies worked with lawyers and business operations teams to further develop their business.

The 10-week program has finished and Mishcon has chosen to invest in Everchron, which develops collaborative litigation-management software, and Ping, which develops technology to automate lawyer timekeeping and provides timekeeping analysis to law firms.

Mishcon is so confident in the two companies that it has agreed to a firm-wide license with Everchron and agreed to a further co-development project with Ping.

Nick West, Mishcon chief strategy officer said a lot was accomplished by the program, which gave the firm’s team the opportunity to meet and work with great people and innovative companies.

Mishcon has also confirmed that MDR LAB will return in 2018, with applications to open shortly.
