In house counsel, leading lawyers and the rest of the legal industry head to Toronto to discuss the future of the profession
The countdown is almost over. Tomorrow, over six hundred of Canada’s most influential lawyers, in-house counsel, and legal innovators will gather for the Canadian Legal Summit 2025, the country’s most dynamic meeting of legal minds.
Hosted by Canadian Lawyer, the one-day summit brings together decision-makers from the top law firms, corporations, and government departments to debate, connect, and chart the next era of legal practice.
“This is where the future of the Canadian legal profession is being written — and you want to be in the room when it happens,” says Tim Wilbur, Global Managing Editor.
Where ideas — and careers — collide
With AI, client demands, and regulatory upheaval redefining the practice of law, tomorrow’s summit promises a rare opportunity to meet and learn directly from the general counsel shaping national strategy and the lawyers leading the transformation.
Attendees can expect lively discussion and candid insights from some of Canada’s most respected in-house counsel and firm leaders, including:
- Arun Krishnamurti, Senior Counsel, Google Canada
- Michael Bowmile, VP & General Counsel, Coca-Cola Canada Bottling
- Stephanie Leung, Senior Legal Counsel, Enbridge
- Shreya Gupta, Director, Legal Counsel (Technology, AI and Privacy), Loblaw Companies Limited
- Angela Jackson, Director, Legal – Canada, Uber
And many, many others.
From boardroom strategy to courtroom innovation, no topic is off-limits. The agenda spans everything from AI-driven compliance to the reinvention of firm structures, talent retention, and the evolving in-house/firm dynamic.
Networking that counts
Beyond the sessions, the summit offers a buzzing atmosphere where in-house counsel meet the lawyers who advise them, new partnerships are formed, and deals begin with a handshake over coffee. The energy is electric — the kind of professional connection and idea exchange that only happens in person.
