Fundraising

Expert fundraising lawyers, with over 100 fundraising rounds negotiated and completed

With experience from over a hundred financing transactions, from early stage to growth stage, we know that fundraising is a decisive step for any growing company, particularly in the innovation space. Well beyond a simple financial contribution, it marks a strategic turning point that redefines governance balance, shareholder relationships and capital structuring. This transaction raises major and decisive questions for the company’s future, from the negotiation of initial terms through a letter of intent or term sheet.

Beyond our advisory duty, we get involved as much as possible until closing to secure and successfully complete the transaction. All key stages, namely term sheet negotiation, drafting and negotiation of shareholders’ agreements, warranty negotiation and corporate documentation drafting are strategically designed and secured by us. Our approach integrates a fine mastery of shareholder issues thanks to our experience gained in this field.
