Corporate and Commercial Law
Duran & Osorio is considered one of the most relevant firms in Colombia in terms of telecommunications, media and technology consulting.
Our experience dates back almost twenty years, since the liberalization process of the networks and services market in Colombia began, until the recent introduction of Internet-based services. During all these years, through our participation in significant transactions, we have managed to accumulate important knowledge of the sector and have consolidated our image as a firm that combines legal and regulatory knowledge with the understanding of the technical particularities and financial requirements of this industry.
This practice area is responsible for aspects related to the telecommunications regime such as the registration of operators, obtaining permits for the use of the spectrum and advising on the application of the regulatory framework. Likewise, the firm has advised state entities in the development of new regulations and has participated in merger and acquisition transactions of operators.
Other aspects dealt with by this practice area correspond to those related to audiovisual media, which include the authorization of TV operators, advice on content distribution contracts for television and OTT schemes.
Also part of this practice area is advice on the legal regime of personal data and, in particular, advice on the execution of contracts under the science and technology regime.
