概要

Companies continue to drive forward on transforming their operations to compete in ever-changing markets. The value of end-to-end digital delivery has only grown as AI and other analytic tools increase the value of data. The increasing value of data has spurred digital transformation not only for purposes of speed and cost efficiency, but also for purposes of profiting from “big data” insights. At the same time, regulatory and talent constraints have intensified, increasing the value of working with partners.

The lawyers in Mayer Brown’s Technology & IP Transactions practice have helped numerous leading companies working with partners in digital transformation programs. For example, we have supported SaaS, platform and other cloud migrations; ERP, RPA, AI/machine learning, IoT and other complex systems implementations; customer-facing, revenue-generating digital platform implementations; core system modernizations; development of software, devices and other technology; and transition and transformation. For digital transformation programs, we help to achieve consistency and efficiency across partner arrangements.

We are top-ranked by the most respected legal ranking services for our work. Most relevant, here, is that we are one of only two groups with a Bank 1 ranking in the USA Technology list in Chambers USA and Legal 500 has awarded us its top ranking in the US IT/Outsourcing for as long as the category has existed.

We are known for not just identifying risks and spot issues, but for delivering practical, pragmatic solutions. Clients rely on our lawyers for their commercial instincts, noting that “particular strengths are their subject matter knowledge, their prompt responses and their ability to quickly understand a client’s corporate culture.”
