Supporting startup, scaleup and mature businesses throughout their life cycle

We work with innovative companies and multinational corporates, challengers and disrupters, to navigate the problems and opportunities they encounter throughout their business lifecycle.

As a full-service corporate group, we represent companies, founders, management teams, wealth owners, venture capital funds, investors, and universities, each pioneers in their own field. We guide them through the start-up process, venture capital financings, mergers and acquisitions, private equity transactions, exits and listings on the public markets, giving insightful board-level and corporate governance advice borne of deep experience, each step of the way.

We help our clients navigate not just the present, but the future; anticipating regulatory change, the impact of evolving technologies and the pressures of a dynamic landscape of culture, governance and innovation. Working with clients who simultaneously drive and experience this ecosystem enables us to provide informed strategic advice and market leading solutions, including in such areas as cyber risk, ESG and shareholder activism.

From emerging companies to market-leading business, our clients compete in fast moving and innovative industries including software, biotech, digital communications, life sciences, as well as  financial services. We also advise some of the leading innovators and operators in more traditional sectors such as real estate, retail and sport. All industries themselves in the process of dynamic change.

As experts in helping dynamic companies to grow, we invest a great deal of time and effort in developing our own resources, people, tools and processes, to help transform the client experience. We work closely with specialists across the firm to provide a comprehensive offering incorporating tax, commercial agreements, fund formations and IP, executive compensation and employee incentive arrangements, real estate and disputes – all tailored towards supporting our clients through their journey of development and growth.
