In 2013, law schools are incubating a number of legal startups. But in 2006, when Stanford Law Professor Mark Lemley started the Intellectual Property Litigation Clearinghouse, the idea was unheard of. The idea was simple – to collect real-time data on IP litigation. The project grew so large that it spun out of Stanford Law School to become commercial venture Lex Machina. The company, now under Josh Becker’s leadership, uses machine learning and natural language processing techniques to extract predictive analytics from what has now become one of the world’s largest IP law databases. While pursuing his JD/MBA at Stanford, Josh also started the Board Fellows Program, which places Stanford Business School students on the boards of nonprofits.
