iNtaka Centre for Law & Technology

iNtaka Centre is a learning, teaching and research hub at the University of Cape Town dedicated to exploring the legal, technical, ethical and social implications at the nexus of law, technology, innovation, data and society. Our work is centred around four main pillars: teaching, research, policy and learning. Through these main pillars, our goal is to positively impact digital policy and the digital economy by employing multidisciplinary research to explore the interplay between technology, regulation, innovation and human rights. iNtaka Centre also runs the LawTechLab, which provides an opportunity to gain hands-on experience with technologies and tools that are poised to revolutionise the legal landscape, including practical exposure to Artificial Intelligence, open public blockchains, and smart contracts. We strive to spark curiosity in the next generation of lawyers and give them the tools they need to manifest this by introducing students to new technologies and the challenges they pose with hands-on work. The lab is a space where you can learn about technology to future-proof your legal career.
