Wendt Partners, a global HubSpot Elite Solutions Partner, has announced that Bernice B. Kapinga, Technology, Security, Contracts & Compliance Manager, will speak at the For Women in Law Legal Careers Workshop in Johannesburg, South Africa, on August 29, 2026. This engagement follows a series of milestones for Kapinga and the firm, reflecting the evolving intersection of legal expertise and technology.
Kapinga's presentation will focus on alternative career paths and opportunities across legal technology, legal operations, cybersecurity, governance, data protection, compliance, and AI. Her participation underscores the growing demand for legal professionals who can navigate the complexities of digital transformation and regulatory landscapes. The workshop aims to provide insights for women in law considering non-traditional career trajectories, highlighting the expanding roles where legal acumen is increasingly valuable.
Earlier this year, Wendt Partners promoted Kapinga to her current role, broadening her responsibilities to include contract lifecycle management, information security, governance, risk, compliance, and technology oversight. This promotion reflects the firm's recognition of her expertise and the strategic importance of integrating legal and security functions within a technology-driven consultancy.
Additionally, Wendt Partners has successfully completed its third consecutive year of ISO/IEC 27001 certification, with Kapinga playing a key role in reinforcing the company's commitment to information security, operational governance, and responsible technology practices. This certification, a globally recognized standard for information security management, demonstrates the firm's dedication to safeguarding client data and maintaining robust security protocols—a critical concern for businesses operating in regulated industries.
The synergy between Kapinga's speaking engagement and the certification achievement highlights a broader trend: the convergence of legal, security, and technology functions in modern enterprises. As organizations grapple with increasing cybersecurity threats and data privacy regulations, professionals who can bridge these domains are becoming indispensable. Wendt Partners' focus on these areas positions it well to serve clients facing similar challenges.
