vLex has consistently generated double-digit revenue growth in recent years, thanks to strong management, a differentiated product offering and market tailwinds. The Company expects profits to grow more than 20% this year. The global LegalTech market is worth $21 billion and growing as legal information users digitalise their business models further and amid the growing complexity and internationalisation of laws and regulations.
