Students lived a day in the life of a tech lawyer last week at the inaugural Student Tech Law Challenge, held by the Society for Computers and Law at the University of Law’s London campus. The main task for the 42 teams attending was to negotiate the terms of an IT/technology contract, which tested their commercial acumen, legal and business knowledge and presentation skills. The winners were Matúš Tutko and Ludwig Hastermann from QMUL, who scored an impressive 49 out of 50 points.
