Technology transactions
A central aspect of information technology and telecommunications transactions is the issue of intellectual property rights, with the protection, transfer or licensing of such rights critical to the success of the transaction both before and after the contract has been signed.
In M&A projects, an understanding of the target's intellectual property portfolio is therefore crucial to success, and we therefore see it as extremely important that our technology group is able to offer clients the combined expertise of its corporate, intellectual property and information technology specialists.
Our multidisciplinary teams analyse the target by performing a comprehensive due-diligence review which provides a realistic assessment of risks and opportunities. This forms the basis on which we draft subsequent contracts and support our clients both before and after the completion of the transaction.
