Adams & Adams launches Africa’s first dedicated Artificial Intelligence Legal Service

Johannesburg, South Africa Leading law firm Adams & Adams, announces the launch of the SMARTAI IP Portal, a groundbreaking digital platform and advisory service designed to help businesses understand, assess, and address the risks posed by the AI revolution.

As artificial intelligence transforms industries at an unprecedented pace, businesses face new and complex risks, from intellectual property exposure to governance gaps. The SMARTAI IP Portal is the first of its kind, offering organisations a practical way to measure their AI readiness and take action” says Darren Olivier, Lead Partner in the AI IP advisory team.

How the SMARTAI IP Portal Works:

  • AI IP Readiness Test & Scorecard: Businesses can complete a unique online assessment to identify their exposure and readiness across key governance areas.
  • Tailored Advisory Services: Six discrete, expert-led services help organisations improve their scores, focusing first on high-risk areas and providing bespoke combinations to suit each business’s needs.
  • Education & Resources: Practical information and educational guides empower teams to make informed decisions and implement best practices.
  • Bi-Monthly Newsletter: Stay ahead in this fast-changing field with sector-specific insights, regulatory updates, and actionable takeaways delivered every two months.

  • Sign up for the newsletter for ongoing insights
  • Complete the AI IP readiness scorecard to benchmark their governance
