Harness innovation and technology

Helping you stay ahead in the age of digital revolution and deep science.

Technology and innovation are at the heart of forward-looking businesses, driving everything from incremental improvements in efficiency, to powering R&D opportunities and transformative shifts in business models. 

By constantly looking ahead and leading the conversation, we help empower businesses - and the people within them - to protect and monetise their innovations. This could be by securing IP rights and developing robust IP strategies, or facilitating tech-driven mergers, acquisitions, and investments. 

Innovation is not just about tech. A successful people strategy – one that nurtures and retains talent, and harnesses good ideas from across your team – also helps set high performing businesses apart. As well as helping you to navigate complex new regulatory landscapes (such as AI and fintech), and structure and negotiate dynamic commercial agreements that support digital transformation, we’re also here to help resolve complex disputes when things don’t go well. 

We understand that legal advice isn’t always enough by itself – so we’ve designed a wide array of initiatives and options to support your business. Whether you want to use new thinking to transform how you work today, or AI to help shape your future, our multi-skilled teams of legal experts, technology experts, legal designers and project managers can help show you the way.

  • Our thought leadership content and hubs – The Future of Work and The Collective – help you think bigger and plan for the future
  • Regular horizon scanners allow you to look ahead to upcoming regulatory changes, enabling you to plan for upcoming opportunities and challenges
  • We offer a range of training services to ensure your team is kept up to date including open seminars, our long-standing HK Breakfast Club series, LS Presents, or via one of our academies (including IP, data, employment and immigration)
  • We also provide contract, HR and IP portfolio audits
