Fortythree Tech Named EWI Platinum Sponsor for Key 2026 Events

by Heather George

The Expert Witness Institute is thrilled to announce Fortythree Tech as our Platinum Sponsor for the upcoming Annual Conference, Study Day, and the highly anticipated Sir Michael Davies Lecture and Dinner.

This significant partnership brings together the UK's leading professional body for expert witnesses and an innovative software company dedicated exclusively to supporting the sector. Fortythree Tech, founded by industry veterans with first-hand experience of the unique challenges faced by expert witnesses, recognises the critical need for purpose-built technology in a profession managing complex litigation, sensitive evidence, and strict court deadlines.

Expert witnesses across all disciplines, from medical and engineering to financial and forensic, have long struggled with general-purpose tools that are simply not designed for their intricate workflows. Fortythree Tech is developing Expert Genie Pro, an end-to-end practice management platform that addresses this gap directly.

Expert Genie Pro, scheduled for launch in Summer 2026, promises a single secure system encompassing case management, document handling, billing, scheduling, communications, and compliance. Driven by Genie IQ, an intelligent engine that learns and improves, the platform aims to revolutionise how expert witnesses manage their practices and fulfil their duties.

“It’s a privilege for Fortythree Tech to support the Expert Witness Institute’s flagship events. As an expert witness myself, I understand the pressures and responsibilities of the role. With Expert Genie Pro, we’re building technology that truly reflects the realities of expert practice. We’re proud to stand alongside the EWI in championing excellence across the profession.” -  Dr Ram Kumar, Co‑Founder, Fortythree Tech, and Expert Witness

"We are absolutely delighted to welcome Fortythree Tech as our Platinum Sponsor for our key 2026 events," says Simon Berney-Edwards, CEO of the EWI. "Fortythree Tech's deep understanding of the expert witness profession and their commitment to developing specialised technology aligns perfectly with EWI's mission to support and champion excellence in expert evidence."

The EWI Annual Conference, Study Day, and Sir Michael Davies Lecture and Dinner are pivotal events in the expert witness calendar, providing invaluable opportunities for learning, professional development, networking, and celebrating achievements. Fortythree Tech's Sponsorship underscores their dedication to the profession and their belief in the future of expert witnesses.
