Netherlands > Data privacy and data protection
The arrival of senior associate Nynke Brouwer in June 2022 strengthened the data protection specialism of Stibbe‘s TMT practice; Brouwer advises a range of clients on cyber incidents and ransomware attacks. Astrid Helstone is a key contact for data protection issues in the context of labour law matters, while Tom Barkhuysen covers intersecting administrative and data law disputes. Former team head Judica Krikke left the firm in March 2023.

Stibbe‘s TMT practice group routinely works on ICT contracting, disputes, cloud contracting and software licensing for large corporates and the Dutch State.

Fintech and financial regulatory experts Rogier Raas and Roderik Vrolijk are key contacts for financial institutions and frequently advise on digital licensing matters. Having co-set up the Digital Economy Group, Jaap van Slooten
focuses on the platform economy. As a recent arrival from Dirkzwager, senior associate Nynke Brouwer adds a new dimension to the practice, specialising in data protection and cybersecurity issues for a range of clients. Former team head Judica Krikke departed for Kennedy Van der Laan.
