Venture Capital

About

Provided by Guerrero Olivos

Their team was a pioneer in the Chilean market by formally incorporating a venture capital (“VC”) area of practice in 1997. They have a strong department with broad expertise representing local and international clients, including investors, entrepreneurs, and various players in the VC ecosystem, such as VC investors, CVCs, start-ups, and accelerators.

Clients receive tailored and comprehensive assistance specific to the VC industry, with the team working closely with investors and entrepreneurs throughout the investment and financing process in Chile and abroad. They guide clients through different investment rounds and stages of the process, up to the point of sale or exit.

They represent investors in the legal structuring of funds and investment vehicles, including CORFO (Chilean Production Development Corporation) funds, in syndication with other investors, conducting due diligence, and negotiating and drafting investment documents covering equity, convertible debt, exit mechanisms, tax issues, and more.

On the other hand, they also assist entrepreneurs and start-ups, offering special rates, in their growth stages. This includes support with financings, structuring financing rounds, corporate reorganization, stock option plans, internationalization processes, and sales or exits in Chile or abroad.
