We assist clients in securing their intellectual property rights by managing and enforcing their IP and by negotiating contracts in the context of R&D activities, manufacturing of products, joint development projects and M&A transactions.
When IT-law is concerned, we advise clients about software development, assignment or licensing, about ERP implementation projects, cloud computing and new technologies such as AI and Blockchain.
Both personal data and non-personal data matters make the third bucket, and relate to IoT devices, data transfers, everything-as-a-service solutions and digital applications.
We often advise clients in the LSHC industry (MedTech companies, pharma companies, biotech companies) and the TMT industry (streaming platforms, sport clubs and associations, AdTech companies, etc), along with companies active in the automotive and public sector.
Our clients range from large multinational corporates and SMEs to investors and governments, to scale-ups and start-ups.
On a daily basis we work closely together with other members of the firm and also within the broader Deloitte organization, specifically with cyber security, data and cloud computing experts and the IP valuation team.
