Centre for Global Law and Innovation
Description
The Centre for Global Law and Innovation (CGLI) at the University of Bristol Law School brings together scholars with an interest in drivers of innovation and global regulatory trends in law, with a particular focus of interest on the intersection of law and technology. We take a broad and inclusive approach to innovation and the work of our members focuses on areas such as trade, procurement, investment, finance, intellectual property, information technology, environmental technology, regulation and health law.
Innovation means different things in different contexts and the work of CGLI members addresses a wide range of issues. Research interests include the potential for disruptive technologies, including digitalisation and automation, to shape regulatory frameworks across legal disciplines. The linkages between innovation and social justice is another focal point for some of our members’ research.
The CGLI promotes research among academics, students, policy-makers, third sector organisations and other stakeholders that have an interest in regulation and innovation, innovative regulation and regulating innovation, in law.
Our leading academics combine an internationally-recognised research reputation with a wealth of experience working with organisations that are responsible for policy-development, professional regulation and social advocacy.
Our members are also involved in interdisciplinary innovation, both in the Bristol Digital Futures Institute, Jean Golding Institute, the newly-established Bristol Digital Game Lab, and further afield. The CGLI serves as a platform for their more legal-focused research projects and outputs. Many members have senior editorial and board responsibilities for leading journals in their respective legal discipline.
