Max Junestrand
Co-founder & CEO
at
Legora

He embodies the rare blend of intellectual firepower, competitive grit, and bold execution that defines top entrepreneurs. At just 25, Max is the founder and CEO of Legora, an AI-native legal workspace that is rapidly redefining how law firms and in-house legal teams operate. A former competitive e-sports player, Max translated his early mastery of high-stakes strategy into the business world, balancing full-time work, double degree studies in computer science and business, and roles at McKinsey and in venture capital before founding Legora.
Rather than shy away from the complexity of the trillion-dollar legal sector, Max approached Sweden’s largest law firm to validate his vision, forging a partnership that quickly led to Legora’s admission to Y Combinator. Since then, he has demonstrated relentless momentum. Max stands out not just for speed and ambition, but for building with extreme focus on product velocity, customer intimacy, and global scale. He is emerging as a formidable player in legal AI, going head-to-head with more established players in their own home turfs. Now operating between Stockholm, London and New York, Max is gearing up to cement Legora’s dominance on the global stage.
