Bronze Sponsor - Linklaters
Linklaters' Media Sector Group has a long history of advising some of the largest media companies in the world on strategic M&A and capital markets transactions as well as on stand-alone commercial and regulatory issues. In addition to our specialist commercial media lawyers, our Media Sector Group also comprises corporate M&A, capital markets, competition, tax, finance and intellectual property lawyers who have worked on some of the most complex and multi-jurisdictional deals in the business.

In an industry where convergence and audience fragmentation are presenting new challenges and opportunities, the media sector is set to have another vibrant and active year. With offices in 30 major business and financial centres in 23 countries, Linklaters is well positioned to help companies and their financial advisers cope with this changing media landscape. From joint ventures and private equity deals to content licensing and distribution agreements, we have the expertise to help both cross-border and across our various practice areas. In the UK we are currently advising on all aspects of digital switchover and on DTT multiplex and broadcast transmission agreements for a major player in the broadcasting market. We have also recently advised on M&A transactions that have helped to reshape the European broadcasting market.

We have a strong presence in the emerging markets. With a full service practice in CEE, a dedicated India group, a well established office in Sao Paulo and one of the largest international practices in China, we are poised to assist companies in the growth opportunities that are predicted in the "BRIC" markets.
