The global market has become increasingly open, but local laws and business and cultural practices mean it can be a challenge to create, distribute and sell goods and services in some markets. A shift towards increasingly complex consumer protection laws is affecting B2C and B2B businesses.

Given the complexity of global business, particularly given the context of international expansion, our commercial contracts team works closely with our global tax, international trade, employment, regulatory, competition and data privacy practices.
