About

Provided by Simmons & Simmons LLP

With technology developing so quickly in countless directions, our TMT team works with an increasingly diverse range of clients.

We’re renowned for our work with technology firms, but we also advise other sector players, like global telcos, social media companies, and satellite providers, along with clients in digital health and fintech. Not just on one off high-profile matters like M&A, but on day-to-day challenges including IP disputes, regulatory issues, data protection, employment and litigation.

We’re trusted for the quality and range of our knowledge. We don’t just understand your business, we also know what’s happening across the sector. What your competitors are doing. Where the next big challenges are coming from.

And as the pace of global technological development continues, our international network comes into its own.

We’re a highly collaborative firm, working together across offices, practice teams and jurisdictions to deliver fully rounded advice on a global scale.

Whatever the TMT industry comes up with next, we’ll help you stay at the forefront.
