United by a shared vision, to elevate practice development from a support function to a strategic pillar of legal business, participants engaged in wide-ranging discussions on how these functions are shaping the future of legal business.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">As India\u2019s legal services sector evolves from traditional structures to more client-centric and future-ready organisations, the importance of these roles is becoming mission-critical. With the legal sector projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.7%, reaching USD 3.37 billion by 2030, participants underscored the growing urgency to institutionalise these functions within law firms.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Discussions covered key areas such as client acquisition and retention, brand positioning, digital transformation, and knowledge strategy, all highlighting the multi-dimensional impact these professionals have across the business lifecycle of law firms.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Mumbai meet follows a successful similar meetup orgainised in Bengaluru earlier this month and signals a growing movement to build an informal pan-India network of professionals dedicated to practice development within the legal sector. Plans for a Delhi edition are already in motion.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p style=\"font-style: italic;\">The event underscored the rising strategic significance of
