“I am deeply honoured to be included once again in Lexology’s elite group. The pace of technological evolution is unparalleled and will continue to accelerate. To be able to continuously reflect these changes as legal advisors and bring the best solutions to our clients, we must continuously monitor this process, understand the technical essence of innovations, and grasp their impacts. This recognition, along with acknowledgments from other rating agencies for our ICT team, hopefully, proves our success in this endeavour,” said Robert Nešpůrek.
