Areas of Expertise & Service
Blockchain & Digital Assets
Blockchain technology and digital assets are both innovative and disruptive in nature — but Dorsey attorneys have been heavily involved in these emerging industry segments since their inception. Not only is it necessary to understand how Bitcoin and other crypto-currencies and digital assets function and are created, it is also critical to have the ability to advise clients how fast-evolving securities, tax, and licensing regulation impact participants in this arena.
Cybersecurity
We live in an era of unprecedented cybersecurity challenges that every company must face. Bad actors continue to evolve, using sophisticated technology to attack critical networks, engage in economic espionage, and steal personal and other sensitive financial information. Now, more than ever, businesses must think strategically about the cyber threats they face, and they must take proactive steps to mitigate those risks.
Digital Health
Technology is quickly changing the way healthcare is delivered and recorded and paid for. Large employers in all industries are adding telemedicine/virtual care visits to their wellness plans; payors and PBMs are partnering with data analytics companies; providers who have implemented EHRs are now adding additional digital services; and technology companies in non-health industries are looking to pivot into offering healthcare technology services — and digital health specifically. As the digital health industry picks up speed, Dorsey’s Health Industry Group is keeping true to its promise to stay “Well Ahead” of industry changes.
