Olivia Cheng

I am an associate in our Commercial team based in Hong Kong. I advise clients on a range of commercial, regulatory, and transactional matters in the technology, media, and telecommunications sector.

My practice involves advising local and multinational clients in the TMT space on a broad spectrum of commercial, regulatory and transactional matters, including data protection and privacy issues.

I have an avid interest in cutting edge technology which lies at the heart of our firm's ethos – supporting organisations being changed by the digital world or those leading that change. I pride myself in transferring this passion into my practice, where I assist clients in the technology, healthcare, cloud services and consumer industries on a range of commercial law, and data protection and privacy matters. These include negotiating commercial agreements, coordinating and implementing all stages of data protection compliance projects, and advising on data sharing and cross-jurisdictional transfer arrangements.

I also have experience in advising institutional clients in the payment industry on payment licensing obligations, AML regulations, outsourcing issues and other regulatory obligations under Hong Kong financial services regulations.

I was admitted to practice as a Solicitor in Hong Kong in 2023.

I am fluent in English, Mandarin and Cantonese.
