Commercial Team

David Beynon is an experienced practitioner and has an established profile as a commercial, technology and intellectual property lawyer. David’s varied commercial practice includes advising on supply chain transactions and strategic outsourcing projects across a range of industries. His work also involves technology, e-commerce and the internet, including advising on software development, licensing and complex outsourcing solutions. David has a strong and established profile as a transactional intellectual property lawyer and frequently advises clients, across a number of sectors, on the existence, ownership, protection and exploitation of their intellectual property rights.

Whilst David’s practice extends across a range of industries a significant part of his work involves MedTech, life sciences, healthcare and the creative industries and he has worked closely with several high-profile clients in those sectors. For example, in the past year, he has been advising Bio-Diagnostics Limited and Prima Dental Manufacturing Limited, on several strategically important projects. Such clients are frequently pioneers in their fields and, as such, have a high and demanding requirement for ongoing commercial and intellectual property advice.

In addition, David’s practice also extends across other creative, development and technology focused industries. By way of illustration, David continues to work closely with Tessitura Network, Inc., a leading US based, global provider of innovative relationship management and ticketing platforms designed specifically for the arts, culture and entertainment sectors.

David’s experience in private practice has been supplemented by time spent in industry on secondment (with payment services provider allpay Limited, telecoms giant EE Limited and student accommodation specialists Unite Group plc), which enables him to better understand his clients’ overreaching commercial objectives and deliver his legal advice in a commercially focused and pragmatic way.
