Demarest Advogados’ technology group is structured into four key areas: IP and innovation, dispute resolution, technology, and a dedicated disrupt practice that supports start-ups on corporate governance and regulatory compliance. The team advises a broad range of technology clients, including digital platforms, AI developers, and IT consultancies, on regulatory, transactional and contractual issues. The firm is frequently engaged in drafting and negotiating technology agreements, handling tech-related aspects of M&A, and navigating regulatory frameworks for emerging technologies. The practice is led by Tatiana Campello, a well-regarded expert in technology and IP matters. Former co-head Tomás Filipe Schoeller Paiva is no longer at the firm.
