LexisNexis Invests in AI and IP News with MLex Launches

MLex releases Artificial Intelligence and Intellectual Property sections to deliver in-depth news and forward-looking analysis on rapidly-evolving areas of legal risk

NEW YORK – MLex®, a division of LexisNexis Legal & Professional^®, today announced the launch of MLex Artificial Intelligence and MLex Intellectual Property, premium news services offering exclusive insights and expert analysis on legal and regulatory risk to business in North America and beyond.

MLex Artificial Intelligence provides the specialist news and predictive insights legal professionals need to stay ahead of the policies, rules, laws and litigation set to shape the future deployment of AI across applications, industries and jurisdictions. Under the stewardship of Chief Global Correspondents Mike Swift and Matthew Newman, MLex Artificial Intelligence joins the dots to present the complete picture on the diverse range of issues raised by AI, from antitrust, M&A and consumer protection to data privacy, cybersecurity, product liability and more.

“Other news organizations might tell you when a suit is filed or a piece of legislation passes, but for MLex AI that's just the beginning. Our special sauce is that we're both global and granular,” says Swift, an award-winning journalist at the forefront of tracking technology and regulatory trends in Silicon Valley for more than a decade. “Litigation of regulatory enforcement is legal combat, and we bring you every battle, not just who won the war. We cover the legal nuance of how regulators are interpreting laws, and we do that worldwide, providing rich coverage every day from not only North America, but also Europe, the UK, Asia, South America and Australia. The launch of our AI service is the biggest and most ambitious expansion in a 12-year digital regulatory story.”

MLex Intellectual Property offers deep news and incisive analysis on the most significant changes across patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets. Laser-focused on the developments and disputes likely to move the legal needle, MLex Intellectual Property puts readers in full command of the issues that will prove critical to managing and protecting IP rights. With dedicated reporters in North America, the UK, EU and Asia, MLex provides forward-looking insights spanning jurisdictions with differing laws and levels of IP enforcement.

“MLex focuses on what IP professionals need to know to move their business or practice forward,” says MLex IP Managing Editor Joan Grossman. “Because our journalists are on the ground and know the key players in their geography, they take the next step to point out the impact of the rulings, providing practical insights on developments and emerging trends locally, but also working together to pinpoint the global implications — how something like a preliminary injunction entered in Belgium can impact a case that's pending in California. With IP issues across all four pillars becoming increasingly global, it’s been incredibly exciting to launch a service that meets a market need for more holistic analysis.”

Announcing the new services, Vice President and Publisher of Legal News at LexisNexis® Teresa Harmon said, “MLex is already a trusted provider of expert analysis on the intersection of law and technology. A natural evolution in the LexisNexis Legal News portfolio, our new offerings in AI and IP complement the award-winning journalism of Law360® by delving into the trends and implication analysis. Together, MLex and Law360 empower attorneys in the US and further afield to stay ahead of developments in an increasingly complex and interconnected regulatory environment.”
