Hogan Lovells: The Litigation Landscape

Law firm Hogan Lovells reveals new insight into technology risk, and how to prevail when technology fails

Businesses need technology. But this unquestionable reliance on tech presents companies with significant operational, financial, reputational and regulatory risks. Whilst these risks are nothing new, Hogan Lovells knew more insight was needed on tackling these dangers, for their clients and the wider industry.

Primary research presented the ideal route to gain this insight, so Hogan Lovells and FT Longitude joined forces to survey 550 businesses as part of a content programme designed to deepen the law firm’s expertise in the area of technology risk beyond a purely legal standpoint. The campaign boosted the firm’s profile for technology-related disputes, and sparked conversations that generated meetings with some of Hogan Lovells’ most important clients and prospects.

    Intelligence

    The research findings were striking. The necessity for technology in growing business shouldn’t be overstated: 61% of surveyed businesses say the development and/or deployment of technology is now core part of their growth strategy, yet just 9% of board members look at technology risk “to a significant extent” and only 31% of businesses involve their legal teams in creating their cybersecurity incident response plans.

    Whilst the survey findings highlight the threat businesses face, the content we created instead focuses on providing actionable ideas that businesses can apply to mitigate the risk. The four principles outlined in the report businesses need to recognise are:

    • It is a boardroom issue
    • Legal involvement is central
    • Risks need monitoring throughout
    • You’re only as strong as your weakest third party


    Whilst technology risk is unavoidable, The Litigation Landscape aims to prove that by following these key principles companies can be ready to sidestep any threat if the worst should happen.

    The work was excellent. The quality of what the team produced, both in content and design, allowed us to reach a senior audience, and discuss key strategic issues with our clients.
