**The Team**

Clyde & Co has been advising on intellectual property (IP), technology/media/telecoms (TMT) and commercial matters in the Middle East for more than 20 years. The firm boasts the largest full-service IP team of any international law firm in the region and a market-leading TMT practice. Whilst largely operating out of the Dubai office, the practice has team members in our offices in Abu Dhabi and Riyadh.

The group brings together an unrivalled level of experience across all specialist areas of IP and one of the longest-established technology law practices in the Middle East. The regional team handles a range of work across the spectrum of IP, TMT and general commercial law. This includes transactional work on a variety of contracts, IP prosecution and enforcement and advisory support on IP and technology issues including data protection.

Joycia Young leads the IP practice and supports a wide variety of local and international clients, devising and implementing brand protection strategies and enforcing IP rights. She has particular strengths in commercial IP with a focus on licensing, franchising and other commercialisation models, strategic IP advice and broader commercial and consumer regulation. Joycia has been continuously featured in the International Who's Who of Franchise Lawyers since 2009. From 2017 to 2021, Joycia has been named by Managing IP/IP Stars as one of the top 250 Women in IP, globally and since 2020, has been continuously ranked as the first and only "IP Transactions Star" in the UAE.

Dino Wilkinson leads the TMT offering and is recognised as one of the leading technology lawyers in the Middle East with a nomination in The Legal 500's Hall of Fame for TMT practitioners in the UAE. Dino's work includes advice on transformative software and outsourcing deals, as well as data protection and TMT regulatory work in the UAE and elsewhere in the region. His practice serves a broad clientele including government entities, financial institutions, and local and international technology clients.

With supporting lawyers and IP professionals from ten countries, including eight native Arabic speakers, the team produces work to the highest international standards with a strong appreciation of the cultural environment in which they operate in the Middle East. The practice prides itself on its ability to provide first class technical legal advice, which also reflects the commercial nuances of the local markets in which our clients operate. A large portion of the work is international, including support to global clients entering regional markets - particularly across the Middle East and North Africa - and advising local organisations on market expansion outside the region.
