In this episode of The Vertical SaaS Podcast, Gavin Savage sits down with Patricia Gannon, founder and CEO of Platforum9, a voice-first platform reimagining how the legal community connects, learns, and grows. Patricia shares her incredible journey from a small village in Ireland to building one of the largest law firms in the Balkans and why she’s now focused on using voice tech to democratize access to legal knowledge and mentorship.
They dive into the challenges young lawyers face today, from lack of mentorship to outdated training models, and explore how platforms like Platforum9 can foster more meaningful engagement across the legal profession. Patricia also shares her perspective on the future of AI in law, why the billable hour model is overdue for reinvention, and how community-building can drive real innovation in the space.
Whether you’re a legaltech founder, early-career lawyer, or just curious about where the future of legal practice is headed, Patricia’s story offers powerful lessons in leadership, inclusion, and purpose-driven entrepreneurship
