We are grateful to Kiwi for his vision, passion, and dedication to DISCO over the past decade.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\u201cIt has been an incredible experience growing this business from an idea to an industry leader,\u201d said Camara. \u201cDISCO is in excellent hands. I have every confidence in Scott Hill and the DISCO team as they manage this transition and carry on DISCO\u2019s proud tradition of combining world-class engineering with a deep love and respect for the law to build product experiences that lawyers love.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\u201cIt is a privilege to lead DISCO as CEO,\u201d said Mr. Hill. \u201cI have seen DISCO\u2019s dedication to innovation and its commitment to using technology to empower lawyers and legal professionals to deliver better legal outcomes. I look forward to leading DISCO as our talented team helps lawyers around the world realize the power and potential of AI.\u201d<\/p>\n
