Our firm has been active in the VC market for over 25 years. Leading stan­dard works such as the VC Hand­book were writ­ten by foun­ding part­ner Dr. Wolf­gang Weit­nauer. Our inter­na­tio­nally trai­ned busi­ness lawy­ers have a deep under­stan­ding of tech­no­logy in the IT, soft­ware and life scien­ces sectors and offer simple, inno­va­tive solu­ti­ons within a complex legal frame­work. Compa­nies and inves­tors in Germany and abroad rely on us in the areas of venture capi­tal, banking and invest­ment law, IT law and data protec­tion as well as in M&A and life scien­ces tran­sac­tions. Our experts assist VC compa­nies with finan­cing, marke­ting and licen­sing of their tech­no­lo­gies and rela­ted issues such as employee parti­ci­pa­tion systems. We advise GPs on tax-opti­mi­zed fund struc­tures and the rela­ted fund docu­men­ta­tion, regu­la­tory clearance, LP onboar­ding and with regard to ongo­ing regu­la­tory corre­spon­dence. This includes all aspects of ESG compliance.
