Über Anna Kuhn
Anna Kuhn advises public and private companies in particular on data protection, contract and ICT law.

Prior to joining Public Sector Law as a partner, she was data protection counsel at SWITCH and managed a legal advisory service for the Swiss higher education sector. Prior to that, she was General Counsel of the Foundation and dealt with administrative, contract, and procurement law, data protection, and IT, among others.
