The FLD experience

Today, it is more necessary than ever to think transversally about the challenges and opportunities created by the digital transition. Lawyers are at the very heart of this transformation: their expertise as architects of society enables them not only to respond to these new emergencies but also, more ambitiously, to imagine the world of tomorrow. The Master's degree in Law, Governance & Digital was created to train creative and open-minded lawyers who are able to take into account the interactions between law, technology and society to imagine the solutions of tomorrow at the global level``.
