Cofounder Aaron Wright and VP of Biz Dev Priyanka Desai at the ConsenSys office Friday morning.

Happy Friday, OpenLaw fam and welcome to May.

We’re hard at work writing the code behind OpenLaw and we’re making some good progress which we’re pumped to share. Plus, an event IRL!

New York folks, come to the official book launch for our cofounder Aaron Wright’s book, Blockchain and the Law on Wednesday the 9th at Cardozo Law School. It’s free and open to the public with RSVP. If you’re planning on coming, send us a note and we’ll be sure to come say hi. RSVP here.

Now, on to the updates!
