B&K is recognised as one of the leading firms in Finland in information technology and telecommunications law. We are regularly involved in contract law, disputes, regulatory matters and transactions conducted in the field of IT and Telecommunications.
B&K lawyers assist companies in finding creative solutions for their ICT-related requirements and businesses – whether it is procurement of ICT-based services or products, IT-outsourcing, licensing or distribution.
The business of buying and selling ICT-based services and systems is a specific field of contract law that has its own specialties and contractual structures. Industry-specific regulation plays an especially important role in the telecommunications industry. Regulations and antitrust law shape the market and the relationships between communication companies.
Our ICT specialists typically advise clients in connection with ICT procurement that often have a significant financial interest. A number of our IT/Telecom procurement assignments are also conducted under the Finnish Public Procurement Act, as many of our clients operate in the public sector.
The IT & Telecommunications team works closely with B&K’s antitrust law and regulated markets specialists, as well as our Technology Transactions and Dispute Resolution teams. This means we can provide a comprehensive, effective and goal-oriented team effort to client assignments.
Legal 500 ranked B&K as a leading firm within IT/Telecoms in 2009.
