Bio

Damien Bailey is a leading international lawyer on corporate and commercial transactions in the technology, media and telecommunications sector. He advises global telecom and technology companies, governments, and companies across multiple sectors on a wide range of matters including digital infrastructure projects, joint ventures, transformational projects and new technologies. Prior to joining King & Spalding, Damien was as partner at a Big 4 accounting firm and co-head of global telecommunications and head of TMT in Asia for two large international law firms. Damien is a strategic adviser to clients on their key projects in multiple jurisdictions. This includes advising on the introduction of world first technologies, entry into new markets and geographies, their rollout of new infrastructure projects (such as satellites, subsea cables, data centres and terrestrial networks) and digital transformation projects. He has worked across a wide range of sectors, including telecoms, technology, financial services, energy, sports, media, gaming and government. Damien works across a number of jurisdictions in Asia Pacific and the Middle East on both inbound and outbound investments in the telecoms and technology sector, as well as regional and global sourcing and transformational projects in a range of industries. He also provides regulatory advice and navigates regulatory environments where the technology is ahead of the regulations, which often requires engagement with regulators and making submissions on behalf of clients. Damien has previously lived in Hong Kong for over 8 years. He is regularly recognised in Chambers, Legal 500 Asia Pacific, Who’s Who Legal, Acritas 5 Stars, and Best Lawyers.
