Technology, Media and Telecoms

Our technology, media and telecoms lawyers can help you stay at the cutting edge in an ever-changing marketplace and regulatory environment.

If you work in Technology, Media and Telecoms (TMT), you’re used to things moving at tremendous speed.

We are a team of listeners, problem solvers and creative thinkers who will guide you with confidence as you navigate your business environment. We understand that the issues you face - from IP, privacy and real estate, to tax, M&A and regulatory issues - increasingly span numerous jurisdictions, and we’ve got the global reach to find you the right answers.

We have over 100 dedicated TMT sector lawyers in 35 countries with deep industry knowledge, some of whom have helped write major transnational legislation. We represent clients of all sizes, from promising start-ups to some of the biggest telecoms and tech companies in the world, as well as household names from the world of entertainment. And if you’re an investor in TMT businesses, we can help you too - we advise institutional, venture capital, private equity and individual investors, management teams and lenders.

When you operate in a dynamic, rapidly changing marketplace, you know that new regulations and legislation are never far behind. We can keep you abreast of incoming changes and advise you on how to adapt, and help you ensure your products and services stay ahead of the curve.

From social media to video games, from blockchain to biometrics, whatever TMT sector you’re in, our lawyers can give you the strategic advice that will keep you moving forward.
