Technology

The tech sector is dynamic and multi-faceted. To a degree, almost every business has some reliance on technology or technologies that define it.

Our widely-recognised and respected tech team has been providing clients with unrivalled counsel for over two decades. The team's position at the top of the market, and the high-profile mandates we have learned from, gives clients the reassurance they need when instructing lawyers.

Working on some of the most significant and high-profile tech projects for entities ranging from government departments to the fastest growing and most exciting businesses around the world, we combine the right insights and expertise for a particular project.

Challenges presented by Covid and Brexit are affecting the tech sector just as much as they are the rest of the world. Please visit our hub where we track developments within our key sectors to explore this further.
