IvCB Digital Economy provides strategic advice to national and international businesses, including technology companies, in the fields of public affairs and the management of stakeholders and reputations. We help businesses with their strategic affairs and promote their interests in the areas of politics, government and official bodies. We do this at national and regional levels, as well as locally.
We have extensive experience in advising technology companies, online platforms, e-commerce businesses, the fintech and medtech sector, streaming services, the sharing economy, search engines and other digital providers who are involved in areas such as big data, e-privacy, blockchain, data tracking, AI, telecommunications, 5G, smart mobility, algorithms, robotics, the internet of things, online advertising and cryptography. As an extension to this, we advise these organisations on issues relating to employment market policy, tax, competition regulations, consumer protection and dealing with trade unions.
A great deal of legislation and regulation in the digital economy has been lagging behind the rapid digital developments and innovations of recent years. Policy development and new legislation in these spheres are progressing briskly. This provides opportunities, but also threats, for players in the digital economy.
