Luminance has been named 'Most Innovative Product of the Year' in the One Planet Awards 2018. The Silicon Valley-based organisation, which highlights global business excellence across a range of industries, made the announcement following the decision of a panel of nine expert judges.ß

'We are delighted that Luminance has once again been recognised as a global example of innovation, particularly in a climate of such exciting technological development. Our technology uses the latest advances in machine learning, which our team of software engineers and data scientists are continually developing. We look forward to continuing to transform the way lawyers around the world conduct document review this year,' commented Emily Foges, CEO of Luminance. “Luminance’s success owes to the versatility of our core technology, which has enabled us to expand from one to four products in 2018 alone; we still have a lot more ground to cover,” she continued.ß

The win marks the latest achievement for the machine learning company, with CEO Foges recently named 'Woman of the Year' at the Women in IT Excellence Awards in November 2018. Luminance has just announced the opening of a fifth office in New York, adding to existing bases in Chicago, London, Singapore and Cambridge, to support its global customer growth of over 175% across 2018. The company now has over 130 leading organisation and law firm customers, including 14 of 'The Global Top 100' law firms and three of the 'Big Four' accountancy firms.ß
