Blockchain technology is a data structure that ensures that records are immutable. Through a decentralised information recording system, the technology aims to add confidence to the business environment and allow the recording of any type of transaction, whether financial or not.
The technology can be applied in practically all branches of activity, including in the intellectual property area, and serve as an important instrument to record intellectual and industrial creations.
Smart Contracts, on the other hand, are sets of rules associated with certain transactions that are capable of being enforced by themselves. They are self-executing contracts, in programming language, with potential for use in any branch of law or type of transaction.
Our office has professionals who are capable of advising clients on any legal aspect related to Blockchain technology and Smart Contracts, including the use of technology to protect material and immaterial assets and the review and drafting of contracts and transactions related to or based on the technology.
