Media & Tech

BPPA advises companies on political, regulatory and government procurement issues in the media and technology space.

We have advised the world's largest e-commerce business, a global IT consulting firm on their first UK public sector contract, and supported a leading manufacturer and supplier of telecommunications and IT equipment and services during a period of crisis.  We have provided strategic and tactical advice to a UK telecommunications company on a lobbying campaign to increase competition in the broadband market.

We have also worked for a terrestrial TV channel, the leading satellite broadcaster and one of the sectoral regulators. Major issues in which we have been involved include:

  • the Communications Act 2003
  • the £4bn NHS National Programme for IT
  • access and development of the UK broadband market
  • ongoing ICT regulatory issues 
  • a range of government IT procurement programmes
