Katchr podcast – Building the foundations for AI (data, governance & the modern law firm)
Is your law firm ready for AI, or are the data foundations still catching up?
In this episode of the Katchr Podcast, Graham Moore is joined by Raj Boora, Global Head of Data at Pinsent Masons, to discuss why data governance, ownership and accountability are becoming increasingly important as firms explore AI.
Raj explains why data governance is often misunderstood as a technology or security issue, when much of the challenge sits with people, accountability and business ownership. She also discusses the role of finance data in law firms, the importance of master data management and why firms should start small rather than trying to perfect every data set at once.
The conversation also looks at agentic AI, data products, lakehouses and why data and AI strategies need to be considered together.
