Independent software company iManage has welcomed Alex Smith as its
global product management lead for iManage RAVN.
Alex joins the firm after almost three years with law firm Reed
Smith LLP, where he served as innovation manager. In his new role, he will work
alongside a team of lawyers and technology experts on the company’s artificial intelligence
platform iManage RAVN, which provides automated document classification and
extraction for professional organisations including law firms.
Nick Thomson, general manager of iManage RAVN, said: ‘RAVN is on
the cusp of explosive growth and we are delighted to have Alex join us at this
vital juncture. Alex brings with him the right mix of technical knowledge,
energy, collaboration skills and indeed the “right” experience, all of which
will play an instrumental role in enabling us to deliver against our vision. He
is a great fit for our organisation.’
Alex added: ‘RAVN is at a very exciting phase of its development
and given the rapid advancement in artificial intelligence technology and a
legal market that is hungry for insights from data, the platform’s potential is
huge. I’m looking forward to delivering against RAVN’s vision. This move is an
exciting opportunity for me and will take me back into the depths of commercial
product design, artificial intelligence and breaking down the traditional
barriers in the legal ecosystem—all areas that I’m extremely passionate about.’
