About Us Client Services Sectors Find People Locations Knowledge Careers > Global Log in / Register Sectors Telecoms Telecoms We work with Telecoms organisations in all stages of growth, from early-stage start-ups to global operators Find out more As our lives are becoming increasingly connected and digitised, the role of telecoms companies in enabling this change is pivotal. While this change presents these companies with significant opportunities, it also presents them with challenges and competition in the supply of digital services is fierce. Our lawyers operate at the forefront of this challenging environment applying their unparalleled expertise in the communications and digital infrastructure space, all underpinned by a deep understanding of technology. We are experienced in providing integrated advice globally across all disciplines to communications, satellite and internet companies and their infrastructure and finance providers and investors, as well as to governments and regulators. Recently, the increasing interest in digital infrastructure as an asset class has led to an explosion of transactions. Telecoms companies are looking to monetise capital intensive and non-differentiating assets such as towers and fibre, while new entrants are leveraging digitisation and the exponential growth in demand for high speed data services by investing in data centres and connectivity solutions such as 5G equipment, subsea cable and satellite transmission. We help our clients maximise their opportunities in this fast evolving environment by offering telecoms lawyers that not only have a deep understanding of telecoms, but also understand technology, data and commercial arrangements. This depth and breadth of expertise means that we can provide a seamless, holistic advice geared to client foreseeable needs as well as their current projects.
