Andrea Leonelli

Lawyer and Solicitor in London

I have a strong interest in emerging technology and I am currently Product Counsel at Epic Games.

I was previously Managing Associate at Deloitte Legal specialising in contentious and non-contentious IP work and on the development of a web3 and metaverse practice.

I trained and worked as an associate at a magic circle firm before joining Deloitte Legal in September 2021.

Prior to qualifying as a solicitor, I worked in the music industry with roles spanning digital music, content operations and management, music technology start-ups, licensing & synchronisation, publishing, digital asset storage, music archives and databases. I founded and hosted the Digital Music Trends podcast for a number of years, speaking at conferences including South By Southwest, MIDEM, c/o pop, Eurosonic, the CISAC World Copyright Summit and Future Music Forum.

Having originally obtained a BA in Music and MA in music composition, I continue to record music in my spare time and look after a maroon bellied conure.
