Technology is one of the most dynamic sectors of the economy. Constant innovations promoted by entrepreneurs and new consumer demands transform business models, markets, and society as a whole. Regulations evolve as a result of these new needs, but often at a slower pace. And this is one of the main challenges for technology companies in Brazil today. Relying on efficient and proactive legal advice is an important advantage for a successful venture.

With the experience and knowledge of our teams, we help companies around the world understand the Brazilian legal framework, assess and mitigate risks, and allow business to thrive. We assist organizations in a wide range of sectors with such current topics as the sharing economy, video on demand, Internet of Things (IoT), personal data protection, and aspects relating to the Brazilian Civil Rights Framework for the Internet.

We have a very entrepreneurial vision and concern ourselves with analyzing the business models proposed and finding a legal framework that is safe and effective from a contractual, tax, and regulatory perspective.

In cases where Brazilian regulations still do not follow market developments, we study the interpretation of our courts on related issues and seek the safest strategy for our clients to make their business vision a reality.
