Technology is often one of the most important assets of an enterprise. It is also constantly and rapidly evolving. ICT projects – large or small – require expert planning, execution and follow-through with an eye to all of the stengths and weaknesses of projects from the moment of conception. We negotiate, evaluate, advise and regularly prepare contracts regarding, for instance, (large and small, national and international) IT projects, software licences, software development, patents and know-how. In addition, we regularly represent clients in the protection of their intellectual property, including copyright (source codes), trade marks and patents.
