Whether representing founders or investors, our experience in venture financing extends to the full gamut of instruments whether deferred equity (convertible debt and equity notes, SAFE and KISS forms etc.) or priced equity alphabet rounds from early-stage seeds, Series A through to later priced rounds for growth and international expansion.

Our lawyers are accomplished corporate finance practitioners with deep experience in the entire financing cycle of companies from ideation to exit. Our experience runs from pre-commercialization seed financing, through early-stage venture financing, later stage growth finance and scale-building through to exits whether via M&A or IPOs.

On the investments side, we are familiar with all forms of documentation of private equity and venture capital models and more bespoke approaches, and we understand the commonalities and the differences in the ways that deals are done in different regions.
