At McVeagh Fleming, we help innovators anticipate obstacles, mitigate risks, and navigate complex legal landscapes to bring their ideas to market. Innovation drives progress, but it also challenges existing frameworks. If you’re developing new business models, applications, processes, or products—whether in FinTech, AI, blockchain, mobility services, or other emerging industries—you’ll encounter legal, regulatory, and commercial hurdles.

Pioneering Change & Managing Risks

Disruptive technologies and services—think Uber, Airbnb, Lime, blockchain solutions, and AI-driven platforms—don’t just shake up industries; they create legal, political, and social shifts. The push and pull between innovation and regulation is inevitable, as seen when e-scooter companies clashed with city councils and faced legal challenges from pro-walking advocates. Regulatory bodies, politicians, and vested interests often react unpredictably to disruptive ventures. With expert legal guidance, you can prepare for the challenges ahead and position your organisation for success.

Our team understands both sides of disruption. We’ve worked with innovators building industry-changing solutions and have experience in the legal and regulatory complexities that come with them. Whether you’re launching a groundbreaking product, expanding into new markets, or dealing with regulatory scrutiny, we can help you:

  • Identify potential legal and compliance risks before they become roadblocks
  • Structure your business to withstand regulatory challenges
  • Engage with policymakers and regulators effectively
  • Protect your intellectual property and commercial interests

Disrupt with confidence. Talk to McVeagh Fleming today to ensure your innovation thrives.
