Lawyers Weekly published a recent article by Jacob Flax, Managing Director and Head of Asia-Pacific (APAC) for Axiom, examining the dramatic transformation of APAC legal operations as the region shifts away from Hong Kong-centric models.
Flax's piece addresses how general counsel can navigate the new distributed landscape across Singapore, Australia, and other regional markets through integrated service delivery models, AI adoption, and strategic coordination that transforms multi-jurisdictional complexity into competitive advantage.
