Rules of VC

Law can change the game in the world of venture capital.

Investing in a start-up or founding one is always a risky business. Each stage in your high-growth lifecycle, from equity funding rounds and venture debt raises to joint ventures and exit strategies, offers distinct opportunities and risks for investors. So where can you find a steady hand that will help you hit the bull's eye?

When driving your idea forward, not only do you need a good business plan and commitment but also a clear legal structure. When the stakes are high, early identification of your legal risks and compliance issues is essential. Otherwise, your brand could suffer, your investment might not thrive, and you could face severe penalties. And never forget that playing by the rules will help you to raise funds and protect your investment.
