Shreya Vajpei is the Founder and Chief Ecosystem Officer of the Indian LegalTech Network, India's largest legal technology community with 600+ members across 15 cities - from major hubs like Mumbai and Delhi to tier-2 cities that had never seen a legal tech gathering. Through 45+ events engaging 4,500+ participants, she's built the infrastructure connecting law firm partners, corporate legal teams, tech entrepreneurs, academic researchers, and policymakers who were otherwise working in silos.
She founded the Indian LegalTech Network (ILTN) to solve a problem most people weren't naming: brilliant legal tech innovations were happening in isolation, with no infrastructure connecting the people building them. ILTN brought together law firm partners, corporate legal teams, tech entrepreneurs, academic researchers, and policymakers who were otherwise working in silos. She co-founded ILTN's Women in LegalTech Initiative, which has mentored 75+ women transitioning into or advancing within legal tech roles, creating structured pathways where none existed before.
Beyond ILTN, she teaches legal technology courses at top Indian universities including NALSAR and Jindal Global University, where she also mentors startups on product development and market strategies. Her experience includes leading digital transformation efforts within traditional law firms, where she trained hundreds of lawyers and introduced tools designed around how legal professionals actually work - not how technologists assume they should.
She also serves as ILTA India Envoy and sits on the Advisory Board for the Global LegalTech Hub, representing India's legal tech ecosystem on the global stage. She regularly speaks at major forums including the IBA Annual Conference in Paris, LegalTechTalk, Legal Geek, and the British LegalTech Forum. LinkedIn named her a Top Voice for Law Tech & AI. When the UK-India LegalTech Trade Mission needed someone to build bridges between markets, she conceptualized and led the first-ever Indian delegation, establishing the foundation for sustained cross-border collaboration.
At the core of Shreya's work is a conviction: lawyers don't resist technology - they resist technology that wasn't designed with them in mind. By fostering genuine collaboration and starting productive conversations, she's building a more inclusive approach to legal innovation, one that better serves practitioners, clients, and the broader community.
