Legal 500, 2024Digital Media: Content at the speed of thought.
In the last 20 years, digital media has become the most dominant form of expression in the world – an evolving and challenging landscape with emerging technologies shooting through the canopy of established technologies. But it is also a scene inflamed with encounters between content creators, content exploiters and those seeking to capitalise on the fruits of others’ labour.
Our team is experienced in working in this market. And we are agile and prepared to constantly adapt and develop to ensure we are delivering the best advice.
