Communications & Mobility
About
Technology is bringing the world closer together and creating new business opportunities in the process. These opportunities bring new challenges, especially for organizations operating on a global scale. Our skills are central to harnessing these opportunities in a number of areas related to communications and mobility.
We provide a full range of services and advice on licensing and regulatory matters, internet issues, privacy and data protection and commercial contracts relevant to global telecommunications, smart devices and cloud computing, among others. We have recently been advising on the legal issues related to big data, IoT and artificial intelligence (AI), and remain abreast of the cutting edge legal issues related to these new technologies.
