Technology is a growing sector in Atlantic Canada, with some of the most progressive technology leaders and creative minds choosing to grow their homes and their businesses in this region. We are proud to play a part in fostering these innovative thinkers.
Members of our Technology law group regularly advise clients in the areas of e-commerce, information technology commercialization and technology development and implementation.
Our goal is to protect and capitalize on our clients’ technical assets while furthering strategic partnerships and growth.
In addition, we recognize that the commercialization of research is a potential growth area in Atlantic Canada. We have assisted universities and colleges partnering with government funding agencies to support commercialization activities– all to create greater utilization of technologies and to foster the development and growth of small and medium sized enterprises in Atlantic Canada.
Whether in the form of venture capital or financing, incorporation, tax, privacy or other advice, our team has the experience to help these high growth companies reach their objectives – whether that be to sell or to build solid sustainable Atlantic Canadian corporations.
