We’re thrilled to announce an exciting new chapter for Xperate as we expand into the European market. Xperate will establish its European operations in Copenhagen, Denmark on 2nd January 2025, led by Stefan Winquist. This strategic move is not just a milestone in our journey; it’s a bold step forward in our vision of becoming a global leader in legal tech. With its reputation for efficiency and forward-thinking business culture, this region offers the perfect launchpad for our European venture.
Having already built a strong presence in the UK and India, followed by successful launches to North America and Australia during 2024, our expansion into Europe marks further progression. We’re eager to engage with this dynamic market, strengthening our role as a trusted partner for law firms and legal tech businesses worldwide.
Unlocking New Possibilities in Legal Tech
Xperate’s entry into Europe isn’t just about geography; it’s about opportunity. Backed by a robust history of empowering law firms, tech vendors, and SMEs, we’re leveraging our global expertise to successfully navigate the unique challenges and seize the opportunities within the European legal landscape.
By combining innovation with highly tailored solutions, we aim to provide exceptional service that helps law firms and legal tech companies across the continent thrive. Whether it’s streamlining workflows or delivering bespoke software, our focus remains on unlocking growth and efficiency for our clients.
Leading The Expansion - Stefan Winquist
Leading our European expansion is Stefan Winquist, a trailblazer in the Danish legal tech scene. With over 26 years as CIO at Bech-Bruun, one of Denmark’s most prestigious law firms, Stefan has been instrumental in transforming legal operations through technology. His innovative approach and proven leadership make him the ideal person to guide Xperate’s growth in Europe.
But Stefan’s influence extends far beyond Bech-Bruun. A true tech visionary, he’s played a pivotal role in introducing cutting-edge solutions, such as the rollout of US Robotics modems to the Danish market. Known for his results-driven approach, Stefan combines deep technical expertise with sharp strategic insight, ensuring value-driven outcomes for clients.
Expressing his enthusiasm, Stefan said:
"I am absolutely thrilled to embark on this new journey with Xperate at such a pivotal moment for both the firm and the industry at large. The potential for innovation and expansion in Northern Europe is vast, especially at a time when the demand to optimise workflows, develop bespoke Legal Tech solutions, and integrate comprehensive vertical products is at its peak. I eagerly anticipate leading our team to new heights and addressing the biggest challenges faced by my former colleagues. Together, we will deliver unparalleled solutions to our clients and establish new benchmarks in the legal tech landscape.”
His extensive network across Northern Europe positions Xperate perfectly to tap into the needs of the legal community, addressing challenges with practical, cutting-edge solutions.
Expanding Horizons in Europe
This expansion underscores Xperate’s commitment to growth and excellence. As we prepare to launch in Europe, we’re committed to setting new benchmarks in legal tech innovation and are excited to share our journey as it progresses.
Simon Hill, CEO of Xperate, commented:
“We are thrilled that Stefan is joining us given his outstanding reputation in legal tech across the globe. Stefan and I have known each other for over 15 years and he fully embraces Xperate’s values and culture. His appointment as CEO Europe, based in Copenhagen, reflects our commitment to bringing Xperate’s expertise to law firms, legal tech providers and existing clients throughout the EU and globally. 3 years on from founding the business with Mark, Xperate has over 100 employees operating out of locations in the UK, North America, India, Australia and now Europe.”
Skål to new beginnings! We’re excited to make our mark in Europe in 2025.
