The TMT Practice Group services clients who require specialist advice in matters related to technology, telecommunications, and digital services.
Much of the work involves drafting, reviewing and negotiating contracts and arrangements relating to the supply of technology systems and services, turnkey projects, cloud (SaaS and IaaS) agreements, outsourcing, maintenance and support services, service level agreements, software development and licensing, software distribution, encryption and network security.
With the emergence of the digital economy, the team has been advising on contracts in a digital environment, social networking sites, on-line content review and compliance, internet payment systems, e-procurement and regulatory and licensing requirements. Recent developments include advising on artificial intelligence, blockchain technology, online tools, online games, streaming platforms and non-fungible tokens (NFTs).
In addition, this Practice Group advises on compliance with personal data protection laws, often conducting audits to ensure such compliance.
The TMT Practice Group has been highly ranked by major publications such as Chambers & Partners, Asia Pacific Legal 500 and AsiaLaw Profiles. In addition, the head of the Practice Group, Tong Lai Ling, has been consistently recognised as a leading individual by such publications.
