Luminance, an AI legal tech startup based in London and Cambridge, is continuing with its international expansion with the opening of an office in Sydney, Australia.
Having raised $75m (£55.5m) in a Series C round in February, Luminace has been rapidly growing its global footprint. In the past year it has opened offices in San Francisco, Dallas, Toronto and Madrid.
It has chosen Australia for its next location as it has already seen some success in the region, securing work with firms including EY Australia, JLL Australia and Lander & Rogers.
“We take a thoughtful approach to global expansion, investing in regions where there’s strong traction and enthusiasm for our technology,” said Eleanor Lightbody, chief executive of Luminance.
“Australian companies have consistently been ahead of the curve as some of Luminance’s earliest adopters. Opening our Sydney office is a direct response to that demand, enabling us to better support and scale alongside it.”
The legal generative AI developer has appointed Clementine Fox as its general manager for Australia.
“We’ve seen such strong and sustained demand from Australian businesses that establishing a permanent presence became a necessity,” said Fox.
“Having an on-the-ground presence means we can move faster to support those eager to deploy our AI and bridge insights between Australia and global markets.”
