What the Team is Known For
8 New Square is widely recognised for its strength in the information technology space, and its members regularly leverage their extensive knowledge of intellectual property in the IT sphere into cases involving patent infringement, FRAND licensing and other issues. Their clients include major software providers and corporate entities, and they have a particularly large footprint in the telecoms industry. Barristers from this set recently acted in Getty Images v Stability AI, which looked at copyright and database right infringement, trade mark infringement and passing off in relation to the AI model known as Stable Diffusion. An interviewee highlights the chambers as being "a real leader when it comes to IP and IT issues."
Ben Newham is the chambers director.
