Commenting on this recent accolade, Josef Fuss said: "Our clients' expectations extend to us being more than just lawyers – we need to understand every aspect of their businesses to add more value. My experience of advising investors, founders and companies, while also recognising the challenges organisations in the technology, life sciences and digital health sectors, enables me to give better advice that supports our clients' commercial goals. The calibre of talent recognised each year is always very high and so, it's an honour to be named in this year's collective."
Managing Partner, Shane Gleghorn, commented: "Josef is passionate about being involved in tech and life sciences deals and this is reflected in his reputation and the relationships he has with clients. This acknowledgement is well-deserved given his hard work and successes throughout his career. It's fantastic that our talent continues to be acknowledged in this way, once again showcasing the quality of our people and the value of Josef's sector-led expertise."
