Technology
Technology is now a mainstay in our business and personal worlds, underpinning everything we do. Our multi-disciplinary team of technology lawyers are deeply rooted in the dynamic technology sector, helping you to achieve your ambitions.
Fusing technology and legal services
The technology sector is fast-moving and dynamic. It is essential for your business to work with a law firm that not only understands the law, but also your sector. The ecosystem tech businesses inhabit is baked into our DNA. We understand your world and speak your language.
Support at every stage of the business lifecycle
Our technology lawyers are as excited about tech as you are and want to support you through all stages of your business lifecycle.
From securing funding to facilitating your business’ sale, managing real estate assets to resolving disputes, and structuring contractual frameworks to leverage technology for commercial success, we have experts for every stage.
Being there for our clients and making a meaningful difference is what we love most about our job.
Legal support for tech ventures
We work with a wide range of technology businesses with a particular depth of knowledge and experience in disruptive technology, including AI, adtech, martech, fintech, insurtech, healthtech, manufacturing and e-commerce. Whether a large multinational technology business or an innovative start-up with an ambition to be the next unicorn, we make it our business to solve your most complex problems. Our success lies in surpassing your objectives by seamlessly blending technology and legal services to address your business needs.
We also support businesses with technology procurement and the use and management of data within the business. As the reliance on technology and data continues to grow and transcend all areas of operations, our remit of support develops in scope and complexity.
