Norwegian legal-tech firm Newcode is establishing a presence in Dublin, creating 30 jobs in its first year as part of a broader international expansion strategy targeting Europe's professional services and technology markets.

Irish Tech News reported that the Dublin move follows a seed funding round of more than €5.7 million, backed by Alliance VC, The LegalTech Fund, and other major investors.

Founded in 2021 and headquartered in Oslo, Newcode already operates across Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Palo Alto, and New York. The company enables firms and enterprises to run intelligent, auditable, and context-aware workflows across their legal operations.

Newcode positions its agentic AI platform as a digital co-worker for legal teams, sitting between an organisation's systems, data, and applications. Lawyers define the workflow and outcome, while Newcode's AI agents handle the reasoning and execution required to deliver the work.

The platform's agentic approach distinguishes it from conventional legal AI tools by enabling autonomous, multi-step task completion with minimal human supervision — a capability increasingly relevant to organisations seeking to reduce manual processing and improve operational throughput.

Maged Helmy, co-founder and CEO of Newcode, said: "As we expand our international footprint, we're excited to establish our presence in Ireland, starting with 30 new hires planned in the first year as we scale and invest in one of Europe's most dynamic technology and professional services markets."

Helmy added: "With operations already across Denmark, Oslo, Sweden, Finland, Palo Alto, and New York, Dublin is the natural next step in our growth."
