Olswang has a vibrant Middle East practice which helps Western-based clients, particularly in the property, construction and hospitality sectors, to tap into the Middle East through a mixture of franchise deals, joint ventures and development deals in countries including Qatar, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Abu Dhabi.

We also have an exciting Middle East client base that is increasingly seeking to make acquisitions in the UK and Europe, as well as roll out Western brands they have bought on the global stage. This is creating high levels of M&A activity and franchise and joint venture deals across the globe.
