About The Cowen Group
At The Cowen Group (TCG), we create the spaces where the future of law takes shape. Since 2003, we’ve built a trusted community of innovators, decision-makers, and bold thinkers who share one guiding principle: Come Smart, Leave Smarter and Connected.
What We Do
Through Cowen Café, our weekly invite-only forum, we bring together 75–100 legal leaders to think out loud on the business of law, technology, and talent. Our flagship SOLID Summits take this exchange further, combining TED-style talks with collaborative roundtables that turn insights into action.
With partners like Microsoft, SOLID AI Bootcamps deliver hands-on training in AI agent building, giving legal professionals practical skills and strategies they can put to work immediately. Beyond events, our podcast highlights people and ideas driving change. Our surveys and research capture the latest trends, giving our community tools to move boldly from Now to Next.
Our Approach
We believe connection drives progress. Every program we design sparks real conversation, builds meaningful networks, and accelerates change.
We help law firms and corporate legal departments anticipate disruption, share best practices, and lead with confidence.
