In the field of information technology, he primarily focuses on the legal regulation of the use of innovative technologies and future industries in general and specifically in the financial sphere, advising on complex technology transactions, commercialisation of technology solutions, prevention of cyber incidents and taking and follow-up measures, and support of technology partnerships. He has a long-standing interest in legal issues surrounding artificial intelligence, including the impacts of AI regulation and governance, setting internal rules and managing the risks of practical deployment of AI tools.

In contract law, he has consistently attended to the drafting of specific and complex commercial documents, including contracts with international aspects, and analysis of complex contractual relationships. As part of internal innovation, he focuses on increasing the efficiency of legal work through AI and automation, measuring the impact of innovation, and supporting the development of AI competencies across the firm.
