FUTURA Digital is a team of senior legal experts based in the UAE, with deep specialization in digital and GameDev industries
We identified issues with the OECD nexus approach in IT tax legislation. After discussions with OECD experts and public discussions in Kazakhstan, we proposed amendments. Our initiative led to changes in IT legislation, aligning Kazakhstani IT benefits with OECD principles, ensuring legal certainty for Astana Hub residents.
We developed a whole corporate structure from scratch for two closely related businesses of one of our clients (NFT trading and game development). By using the tax benefits available in Hong Kong and Cyprus, we managed to design an almost tax-free international group of companies.
We set up personal data processing processes for a large game publisher, prepared a package of necessary documents, and also developed an individual system for working with personal data in the "constructor" format for different types of games.
Entity registration, bank account setup, hiring 80+ employees. Opening personal accounts, securing TRPs, and helping with apartment rentals for employees and families.
FUTURA team conducted a comprehensive analysis of the most popular OSS licenses for a large cybersecurity company in the CIS market and provided them with a detailed report on the consequences of their use in the development of their software
We drafted a full set of documents for an Asian game studio which engaged with employees and independent contractors for creation of their game. We had to consider tax implications of agreements with contractors and include proper description of IP rights transfer, warranties for mitigating risks.
Our team prepared a strategy for launching a game with NFT objects in the metaverse and play2earn mechanics. Selection of a jurisdiction favorable to NFT regulation and convenient for settlements with storers was carried out - now the company is at the registration stage.
Registering investment platform software in a national registry of a CIS country
We assisted the client in developing the structure for information exchange between the Voluntary Insurance Platform and its partners—non-state pension funds. As part of this project, our team prepared a universal template for an information and technical cooperation agreement to launch the platform, taking into account a balance of interests and applicable legislation. This enabled the client to launch the product's MVP in the shortest possible time.
