Capital markets

Overview

Our experience sitting on both sides of the table – from assisting entrepreneurs looking to raise capital to advising funds and capital providers looking to invest – gives you a unique advantage in the capital market place. If you are an early- or growth-stage company, you need to capitalize on all opportunities, commercialize technologies, and secure funding to get your feet off the ground. We can help with the formation and planning stage of your new enterprise and work with you through the structuring and negotiation of investment transactions. We have a strong network of investors and can provide introductions when needed to help your business grow – and to help build your human capital and strategic connections, too. As your business expands and grows, we can help advance your long-term vision and work with you on transactions with private equity and venture capital groups. When it comes to fund representation, we provide transactional support and advice on financing issues from the investors prospective. We have experience working with seed funds, private equity groups and venture capital firms.
