Digital commerce & AI
Overview
Our reputation for combining commercial thinking with our extensive industry know-how, helps our clients maximise opportunities, secure their IP and data, and minimise risks to develop practical technology solutions that last.
As Bill Gates observed,
"We always overestimate the change that will occur in the next two years and underestimate the change that will occur in the next ten. Don’t let yourself be lulled into inaction."
This perspective informs our approach. We anticipate long-term technological and commercial shifts so our clients can act decisively today. Clients work with us because we share their drive to deliver practical, commercially effective solutions. Our clients and their stakeholders range from start-ups and scale-ups to SMEs, owner-run businesses, and established mid-to-large technology companies, all seeking a legal partner to support innovation, growth, and commercialisation.
Our success comes from proactively spotting opportunities and risks and creating strategies that are both practical and commercially viable. We have decades of experience across technology advice, including procuring and selling infrastructure, transformations, integrations, designs and builds, software supply, AI and machine learning, quantum computing, IoT, digital commerce, and disputes. We also manage specialist negotiations and agreements with global and national vendors such as Microsoft, Google, AWS, SAP, Oracle, Cisco, Dell, and Lenovo.
