Val Paverd
Val is co-chair of the Digital Transformation, Managed Services and Outsourcing Group at Nelson Mullins. Val is a strong advocate for collaborative and human-centered deal-building and negotiating practices.
Ed and Val developed the Transformation Enablement Process, which Financial Times commended in connection with its FT Innovative Lawyers of North America award for 2022. This provides a holistic and inclusive method for working with customer teams and potential partners to navigate the difficulty and complexity of programs that use technology as a conduit for meaningful transformational change.
The process has been applied to very complex work, including all types of outsourcing, global ERP systems integrations, re-engineering programs, and global digital transformations. This work has spanned industries as diverse as financial services, automotive, healthcare, entertainment, agricultural, and consumer packaged goods (CPG).
