Technology, AI & Digital Assets

Legal Counsel for Where Technology Outpaces the Law

Technology businesses operate in a legal environment where innovation frequently outpaces regulation. Artificial intelligence, digital assets, software platforms, and data-driven business models raise questions that extend well beyond traditional technology law, touching on corporate finance, securities regulation, intellectual property, privacy, competition, consumer protection, and potential liability.

Averites advises technology companies, founders, investors and financial institutions on transactions, regulation and disputes throughout the lifecycle of technology businesses.

OUR APPROACH

How We Advise Technology, AI and Digital Asset Businesses

Our objective is to help clients build, finance and commercialise innovative businesses while managing the legal risks that can affect their value, growth and ability to operate internationally.

  1. Who We Advise

    Our lawyers work with emerging companies and established businesses that are developing or deploying artificial intelligence, software, SaaS products, blockchain infrastructure, digital assets, fintech products, cloud services, and other technology-enabled solutions. We also advise investors acquiring or financing businesses in these sectors.

  2. Corporate, Financing and Investment Matters

    We assist founders and technology companies with corporate structuring, venture capital and growth financings, strategic investments, mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, commercial partnerships and international expansion. For investors, we conduct legal and regulatory due diligence and advise on governance, investor protections, regulatory exposure and exit arrangements.

  3. Artificial Intelligence Governance and Risk

    Artificial intelligence requires increasingly sophisticated legal governance. Averites advises companies developing and deploying AI systems on regulatory requirements, governance frameworks, contractual allocation of AI risk, intellectual property, training data, privacy, transparency, automated decision-making and potential liability arising from AI-generated outputs. We also assist businesses introducing AI into their own operations with internal policies, risk assessments and contractual protections.

  4. Digital Assets and Blockchain

    Our digital assets practice advises on blockchain projects, token structures, digital asset transactions, securities and financial regulation, governance, commercial arrangements and disputes. We assist businesses in determining how existing regulatory regimes apply to innovative products and how regulatory risk should be incorporated into product and transaction structures.

  5. Intellectual Property and Technology Transactions

    Technology transactions frequently depend on control of intellectual property and data. We advise on IP ownership, technology licensing, software development arrangements, SaaS and cloud agreements, technology transfers, commercialisation arrangements and IP issues arising in financings and M&A transactions.

  6. Investigations, Litigation and Arbitration

    Where regulatory authorities, shareholders, customers or business partners challenge a technology business, Averites also represents clients in investigations, litigation and international arbitration.
