The AI-Powered Legal Transformation Summit 2026 by ETLegalWorld will bring together General Counsel, in-house legal leaders, and technology innovators on August 7, in Bengaluru, to chart the next phase of legal transformation. Recent surveys find that legal departments increasingly expect AI to take over a meaningful share of routine workload, and most legal leaders believe AI will fundamentally reshape how law firms price their services. Despite this momentum, a notable share of organizations still lack any formal AI policy or guidelines, and many have yet to see clear, measurable cost savings from AI investment. Confidentiality, data quality and trust in AI outputs remain the most commonly cited roadblocks to enterprise-wide scaling. The full-day conference is expected to draw over 150 attendees and feature more than 30 speakers across six-plus sessions. Speakers include Subhadip Sarkar, Vice President – Legal and Corporate Administration at Cognizant; Mukesh Kumar, Regional Compliance Manager for South Asia, Southeast Asia and India at Hitachi Ltd; Sudha Hooda, Executive Director, Legal and Member of the Nvidia Graphics Board of Directors at NVIDIA; and Panduranga Acharya, CXO and General Counsel at Zepto Limited.
