Technology and data are crucial for strategic innovation and the unlocking of business potential. Organisations are transforming rapidly into data-driven ‘tech’ companies. The implementation and use of technology, including AI, requires a fundamental rethink. HabrakenRutten is at the forefront of all tech developments and fully understands the needs of the business.
We focus on technology projects, outsourcing (IT and BPO), Software-as-a-service (SaaS) contracts, software licensing, cybersecurity, AI, IT-transactions and litigation. We have particular experience in contracting critical software (often SaaS) solutions, driven by a need for continuity, compliance and cybersecurity. We regularly assist with digital transformations and ERP implementations. Our specialists also have in-depth knowledge of intellectual property rights, including copyrights. As tech and data are increasingly subject to regulation, we always have an eye on the future taking into account an ever-moving landscape.
