Digital Economy

Digital transformation is all about using the latest technology to improve your business model. Digital technology creates new business opportunities which in turn creates a whole new range of tax and legal challenges such as contracting, data protection, privacy questions, intellectual property, consumer protection and competition issues.

The speed at which digital technology has become an integral part of our daily lives has overtaken most legislative processes. In recent years, the European Union, Member-States and international legislative bodies have therefore increased their regulatory efforts.

How we can help

To overcome your challenges, you need a legal adviser who understands your goals and provides you with the necessary assistance to bring your projects to a successful ending and protect your business appropriately. 

Pragmatic partners: we work with you at each stage of your technology and intellectual property projects.

Deal-driven: we take the shortest route to achieving simple and effective agreements, on your terms and conditions.
