Optimising legal processes for a tech start-up’s international expansion

Our client is an ambitious start-up in the tech industry. Their platform connects suppliers and buyers in the manufacturing sector, helping them find new partners, generate more business, manage communication, and requests in one integrated environment. They also offer subscription-based services that support order management by integrating the supply chains of buyers and suppliers into a single standardised solution with automated processes.

Céline Teeuwen, legal counsel van Halsten, explains:

“The company is preparing to launch its platform in the UK. An ideal moment to streamline legal processes and assess potential risks. At Halsten, we reviewed and optimised their general terms and conditions, drafted a privacy policy, and delivered templates for processing agreements and development contracts.

As part of the platform’s development, the company regularly collaborates with small software developers, many of whom are based internationally. It’s essential to legally formalise these relationships, particularly to avoid issues around intellectual property rights or development responsibilities. Our role is to provide a solid legal foundation, enabling the company to move forward confidently with their international growth.

This is exactly the kind of challenge we’re built for. We enjoy the innovative nature of the work, the collaborative mindset, and the strategic sparring that comes with it. We distinguish clearly between ‘nice-to-haves’ and essentials. A detail that’s especially important for start-ups operating on limited budgets.

We understand the tech space and know what these kinds of entrepreneurs need. Thanks to our experience in the sector, we can offer guidance that’s both practical and strategic. And yes, projects like this often require rapid turnarounds since legal checks are sometimes left until the final stages. But that fast-paced way of working suits us perfectly.”
