Clio Opens New Dublin Office, Strengthening Its Commitment to Ireland and Continued Growth in Legal Technology

Clio, the global leader in legal AI technology, today announced the opening of its new Dublin office at Two Dockland Central, marking a major milestone in the company's decade-long presence in Ireland. The new space reflects Clio's ongoing investment in Ireland's technology ecosystem and reinforces Dublin's role as a cornerstone of Clio's global operations. Over the next year, Clio plans to expand its Dublin team from 60 to more than 100 employees, adding new roles across research and development, AI innovation, and go-to-market functions. "Clio has proudly called Dublin home for more than ten years," said Sarah Murphy, General Manager, International at Clio. "Our growth here is a direct reflection of the incredible talent and culture that define our Dublin team. We have scaled substantially over the years and built an environment of collaboration, creativity, and purpose that continues to shape the future of Clio and advance our mission to transform the legal experience for all." "EMEA is one of our fastest growing regions globally," added Ronnie Gurion, Chief Operating Officer at Clio. "Law firms of every size, from small practices to large international firms, are choosing Clio as their technology partner. Our expansion in Dublin strengthens our ability to serve this rapidly growing customer base while investing in the innovation and people that power our platform." A Growing Presence in Ireland Since opening its Dublin office in 2013, Clio has grown from a small local team into one of Ireland's most dynamic technology employers. The office now serves as Clio's UK and European headquarters, housing teams across engineering, product development, customer success, and marketing. Over the past decade, the Dublin team has helped shape Clio's global product strategy and driven advances in AI and legal technology now used by more than 400,000 legal professionals in over 130 countries. Clio's growth in Ireland has been recognised through its Great Place to Work certification and continued expansion in both scope and scale. Ireland's rich tech talent and culture of innovation have been key to this success. Clio continues to hire across high-value disciplines, including AI research, product design, and customer engagement, embedding its presence even deeper in Ireland's thriving tech community. Celebrating a New Chapter To mark the occasion, Clio will host an official opening event on Thursday, November 13, 2025, from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM at its new Dublin headquarters. The event will bring together Clio's leadership, local partners, and members of Ireland's tech and legal communities for an afternoon of connection and celebration. Minister Peter Burke, Department of Enterprise, Tourism and Employment: ''Clio's continued investment in Ireland and the creation of over 40 new jobs in Dublin over the next year is a strong endorsement of our thriving technology sector and skilled workforce. This growth not only strengthens Ireland's position as a global hub for technology but also reflects the collaborative spirit that makes our country an ideal home for innovation. I thank Clio for their continued investment in Ireland and wish all the team the best for the future.'' "Clio's expansion reinforces Ireland's position as a leading destination for global technology and innovation," said Michael Lohan, CEO, at IDA Ireland. "Their continued investment highlights the strength of our talent and the collaborative ecosystem that drives companies to grow here." Clio's Dublin headquarters reflects a long-term commitment to Ireland and the company's confidence in the country's role as a global hub for innovation. The expansion builds on years of growth and collaboration, serving as both a space for continued innovation and a symbol of Clio's connection to Ireland's vibrant tech and legal communities.

Ireland Ranks 4th Globally for AI Adoption, according to Microsoft's new AI Diffusion Report

Ireland has emerged as a global leader in the AI era, ranking fourth worldwide for AI diffusion (adoption and usage) according to Microsoft's latest AI Diffusion Report. This achievement reflects Ireland's strong digital infrastructure, skilled workforce, and commitment to innovation, placing Ireland alongside nations like Singapore, the UAE, and Norway in shaping the future of technology. Globally, AI is spreading at an unprecedented pace. The report reveals that 1.2 billion people have used AI tools in under three years, making AI the fastest-adopted technology in history, outpacing the internet, personal computers, and smartphones. For Ireland, this rapid uptake signals a thriving ecosystem where businesses and individuals are embracing AI to boost productivity, creativity, and competitiveness. Recent research from Trinity College Dublin, in partnership with Microsoft Ireland, reinforces this trajectory. The AI Economy Index 2025 predicts that AI could add €250 billion to Ireland's economy by 2035, with 91% of organisations already using AI - nearly double 2024's figure. However, the study highlights the need for inclusive skilling and governance to ensure SMEs and the public sector keep pace. Insights from Microsoft's Ireland Work Trend Index 2025 further underline AI's transformative role in the workplace. Adoption is up 27% year-on-year, with 54% of workers believing AI skills broaden career opportunities and 41% saying AI helps them work smarter. Yet, access and training gaps remain, making employer-led skilling critical to unlocking AI's full potential. As AI becomes a general-purpose technology, Ireland's position shows what's possible when innovation meets investment. The challenge now is ensuring responsible and inclusive adoption so every organisation and worker can share in the benefits. To fully participate in an AI-driven economy, people need the digital skills and technical proficiencies to use AI tools productively and responsibly. Without this foundation, AI risks becoming a technology that only a segment of society can leverage, deepening inequality rather than broadening opportunity. Catherine Doyle, General Manager, Microsoft Ireland, commented; "I'm delighted to share that Ireland ranks 4th globally for AI diffusion - a testament to the creativity, ambition, and collaboration happening across the country. The AI Diffusion Report, published by Microsoft's AI for Good Lab, reveals that Ireland stands out as a global leader, behind only Singapore, the UAE, and Norway. This achievement reflects the strength of our digital infrastructure, our skilled talent base, and our national commitment to innovation. Ireland's position shows what's possible when innovation is matched with investment. As AI becomes a general-purpose technology, our focus must remain on inclusive access and responsible deployment to ensure its benefits are shared by all." Note: Ranking is adjusted for population size (per capita basis) to ensure fair comparison between countries. Read the full AI Diffusion Report here. See more stories here.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. I'm thrilled to welcome Phil Gilbert to the show today. He is IBM's former General Manager of Design, where he helped transform one of the most traditional companies in the world into a global design thinking powerhouse. In his new book, Irresistible Change, he pulls back the curtain on how he did it. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…leaders and innovators who want to spark meaningful change in their organizations. If you're trying to turn great ideas into action and scale creativity across teams, this episode will challenge how you think about transformation. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…change is inevitable but how you lead it determines whether your organization thrives or stalls. Phil shares how he helped one of the most traditional companies in the world reinvent itself from the inside out. In this conversation, Phil explains how to build a culture that listens instead of dictates, why mandates fail, and how "every day is a prototype" when you're leading transformation. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Transformation succeeds when it's treated like a product, not a mandate. Sustainable change starts with small, willing teams that create momentum. Design thinking isn't about becoming a designer, it's about empathy and experimentation. Culture drives outcomes more than any single tool or technology. Every day and every idea is a prototype for what's next. WHAT I LOVE MOST…Phil's reminder that meaningful change doesn't come from top-down directives. It comes from people who are empowered to experiment, collaborate, and learn.

In this KE Report company update, I chat with Mike Spreadborough, Executive Co‑Chairman, and Kas De Luca, General Manager of Exploration at Novo Resources (TSX: NVO - OTCQB: NSRPF - ASX:NVO ) for an in-depth exploration overview from three key Australian projects - Teichman, Sherlock Crossing, and Tibooburra - highlighting strong gold and antimony results and outlining next steps for 2026 fieldwork. Key Discussion Points: Teichman Project - High-Grade Surface Gold: First-ever systematic exploration at Teichman, located near the 13Moz Hemi Project, returned standout surface samples up to 77.5 g/t and 51.4 g/t gold. Two major mineralized trends have been defined over 1.3 to 2.5 km, with drilling planned as soon as weather conditions allow. Sherlock Crossing - Gold-Antimony System: Scout drilling confirmed strong mineralization including 3 meters grading 2.9 g/t gold with 1.8% Sb, and peak sample results of 7.7 g/t gold and 4.77% Sb. Novo plans follow-up work leveraging Western Australia's EIS grant program to offset drilling costs. Tibooburra Project, New South Wales - Expanding Mineralized Trends: Continued success at Pioneer North and South with gold samples up to 40 g/t. Systematic fieldwork and land expansion have outlined several parallel gold-bearing trends extending up to 22 km, positioning Tibooburra for more extensive drilling next year. Strategic Outlook: Novo plans to balance high-priority drill targets with permitting timelines across projects while maintaining its strong cash position following recent divestments. Flagship John Bull remains the top near-term drill target, complemented by upcoming work at Teichman, Sherlock, and Tibooburra.

Trust First: AI adoption in logistics must be built on governance and trust, using frameworks like NIST to ensure data security and accountability. AI Augments, Doesn't Replace: AI is a powerful enhancer for core systems (TMS, visibility), not a standalone replacement. Its primary role is to improve efficiency. Focus on Practical Pain Points: Start AI implementation by targeting tedious manual tasks (e.g., check calls, data entry, carrier onboarding) for rapid, measurable ROI. Stability Over Startups: Partnering with existing, integrated tech vendors (like Descartes) ensures greater stability, expertise, and roadmap alignment than relying on new AI-only startups. Audit Your Current Tech: Before investing in new AI, ensure you are fully utilizing the latest features and integrations of your current mission-critical systems. Build Trust with Staff: Overcome internal resistance by layering AI into current workflows and establishing clear performance baselines (ROI) before deployment. Enhance What Works: The path to resilience is through strategically integrating AI into proven, existing workflows step-by-step, not by chasing every new technology trend.

The Tahoe TAP podcast is back, offering listeners their inside look at the Things, Adventures, and People that keep Tahoe's mountain spirit alive. Hosts Mike Peron and Rob Galloway return behind the mics to share the latest stories and voices shaping life around the lake — and with ski season on the horizon, the timing couldn't be better for their latest guest. In this episode, the duo sits down with Dan Healy, a seasoned ski industry leader and the newly appointed Vice President and General Manager of Sierra-at-Tahoe, as the resort gears up for its November 28th opening. Healy's mountain story runs deep — spanning three decades in snow sports and resort operations. His career has taken him from directing children's programs at world-class destinations like Beaver Creek and Crested Butte, to managing ski school operations at Sugar Bowl, and later, serving as Vice President of Recreational Services at Solitude Mountain Resort in Utah. Notably, Healy's connection to Sierra-at-Tahoe goes way back — he previously served as the resort's Director of Snowsports, making his return to the mountain a true full-circle moment. Now leading Sierra into a new chapter, Healy brings with him a wealth of operational experience and a passion for nurturing both the guest and employee experience. On this episode, the conversation covers everything from resort recovery and community spirit to the innovations shaping the coming winter season.

Our guest on Episode #75 of the TGG Podcast, in association with Teamworks, is Merijn Zeeman. Merijn is the General Manager of AZ Alkmaar - a team that regularly compete at the top of the Eredivisie, despite having a budget that's dwarfed by their bigger rivals. Prior to joining AZ, Merijn was the Sporting Director at Dutch cycling outfit Team Visma, helping them create history by winning all three Grand Tours in 2023. In this episode, Merijn told us about the lessons he has taken from cycling into football, about how AZ have managed to outsmart the opposition and about their recent collaboration with Teamworks and Luke Bornn. We hope you enjoy this episode and if you do, please follow us via your preferred podcast provider. SHOW NOTES => 02:18: Big clubs in Holland have a budget 4 to 5x that of AZ. 03:30: Started at AZ in December 2024. Came in from cycling, where he was Sporting Director. Spent 10 years there. 05:08: How Team Visma were transformed from also-rans to winners of three Grand Tours in one season. Culture had been bad/ still had one of lowest budgets. 08:55: How they transformed the culture. "It is not logical to expect a group of people will work good together." 14:22: Bringing in influences from outside cycling and why. 17:51: Move into football with AZ. How it came about. 19:07: General Manager role - not one we hear about often in UK football. What does it involve? 21:54: What makes AZ special and even unique as a club? Average finish of 3.8 in the Eredivisie in last 10 years. 26:27: Was the transition from cycling to football difficult? Originally from Alkmaar, which helped. Relationship with Dave Brailsford and also Erik ten Hag, who invited him to watch training at Manchester United. 29:33: How club use data. Influence of Billy Beane and Luke Bornn. Team Visma used data to overcome one outstanding rival rider. Use of Teamworks Intelligence and how it has helped. "One of the ambitions is that in maybe five years we can win games because we understand the game better through data than any other team." 35:06: Big thing has been making data more accessible to the coaches at the club. 36:48: How AZ use Teamworks Intelligence. Big thing is merging event and tracking data. Previously the club had tried to develop their own model. 39:23: Using objective data to counter biases in decision-making. "For a lot of coaches it is about opinions or visions, not about objective information. It is very hard to progress if you don't have objective information." 42:25: How Team Visma used data to usurp a dominant rival rider. Taking this lesson into football. 45:35: What are the club's ambitions for the future?
