Expanding internationally is one of the biggest and most pivotal steps in a company’s growth plan. Businesses looking to go global are faced with the challenges of abiding by the rules and restrictions in overseas jurisdictions, requiring the help and expertise of legal advisers.

MBM Commercial LLP can seamlessly assist our clients who are looking to grow internationally as the founding member of World Tech Legal (WTL), a network of entrepreneurial law firms with a focus on assisting innovative companies in the technology sector. WTL was established in 2020 to connect our clients with other technology-specialist law firms. WTL now has firms located in 22 jurisdictions in Europe, Asia, the USA and Australia and the association is looking to expand with 30 jurisdictions by July 2023.

How can MBM and WTL help my business go global?

Effective communication:

Whether you are looking to acquire, sell or invest in a company in a new region or jurisdiction, MBM can assist with all legal negotiation and ease the difficulties that often arise during the beginning stages of a transaction, such as due diligence. MBM’s Corporate team are highly skilled in project management and can help to ensure the transaction is completed on time and within budget.

Cost-effective:

MBM’s clients have the benefit of gaining access to the knowledge and skill from each law firm in the WTL network without the costs of working with a large, international law firm.

Experienced team and network:

Membership to the WTL is by invitation only. This ensures the WTL network is made up of dynamic law firms with the same values and goal of working with entrepreneurial organisations looking to grow internationally and to help unlock their global potential.
