\u201cBelow is the extract from the interview with Vittorio De Luca for Italia Oggi Sette. \u201cFor many years it has been common practice to recognise law firms with awards of various kinds, but only recently have awards appeared for \u201cthe most innovative firm\u201d, \u201cthe most digital firm\u201d etc.\u201d, says Vittorio De Luca & Partners\u2019 managing partner. \u201cAs reported in a recent article in the Financial Times, \u201clawyers\u2026 often tend to underestimate the impact or potential impact of technology\u201d, while the need to adopt and use digital tools appears increasingly evident to this writer.
Despite a certain scepticism, however, firms must and are adapting to the new trend and the possibilities that the digital world offers. In this context, De Luca & Partners is no exception, and for many years the budget dedicated to investment in technology, knowledge management (via the KenDL platform) and management of automation systems has been particularly significant. Undoubtedly, this new way of understanding the firms\u2019 operations also requires an investment in training in the use of technology. Furthermore, particular attention is paid to sustainability, diversity and inclusion, to equal opportunities and protection of parenthood and the work-life balance. The adoption of so-called \u201cESG\u201d strategies is becoming a necessity and steers business model of many companies. In recent years, the exponential growth in focus on sustainability in the broadest sense of the term has taken hold even among the most successful law firms that have created support mechanisms, offering the possibility of remote working and proposing specific solutions to ensure a healthy balance between work and private life\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
