Private Equity and Venture Capital

Our cross-border Corporate group is immersed in the European Private Equity and Venture Capital market at all stages, from seed stage and growth capital financings through to advising on leveraged buy-outs and exits. Our teams are well placed to provide integrated support across Europe and in each of our domestic markets.

Why choose our Private Equity and Venture Capital lawyers?

We are not only experts within our field and sectors, but we are supported by other specialist groups across our European network, from regulatory and commercial colleagues specialising in medical device, genomics and biopharma, IP, data privacy, cyber security, mobile payments, telecoms to FCA and fintech. Our cross-practice and cross-sector teams not only execute deals but help clients navigate and pivot through complicated regulatory and commercial issues in order to get the deal done.

Our Private Equity and Venture Capital teams advise predominantly in our sector focus areas: Technology, Media, Life Sciences and Financial Services. We act for disruptive companies, investment funds, management teams and debt providers operating in these highly regulated sectors across Europe.

In the TMT sector, we act across the broad spectrum of tech, including advising innovative data-led digital growth companies in some of Europe's most pre-eminent tech accelerators, on early stage rounds (including EIS and VCT) to advising on later stage development capital including venture debt, bridge financing and buy-outs/exits, whether via trade sale or IPO. In the Life Sciences sector our clients include IP-rich University spin-outs, mature biopharma and medical device companies to specialist Life Sciences funds.
