Venture Capital

We provide both venture capital funds and startups seeking new investment with support tailored to the particulars of each business model. For venture capitalists in Brazil or abroad, we counsel fund managers and limited partners from fund formation to disinvestment.

For startups, we offer support not only at incorporation but through each stage of growth, weighing all the key factors:

• Risks and costs to the business
• Tax issues
• Intellectual property and privacy matters
• Compliance policies and regulatory obligations

When it comes to the financing process, through either equity or convertible debt, we offer complete legal counsel and services:

• Representing investment funds, corporate ventures and entrepreneurs
• Establishing seed investments and series A, B, C and D investment rounds domestically or abroad
• Advising on structured venture capital transactions with offshore vehicles
• Providing corporate and tax guidance on structuring and negotiating investment rounds
• Structuring investment programs and transactions in specific niches and industries from banking to energy
• Negotiating commercial agreements or partnerships 

We understand that corporate restructurings, mergers and acquisitions, and asset sales are delicate and vital undertakings for both investors and founders. That's why the team draws on a wide range of expertise and comes exceptionally well prepared to take the lead in acting for our clients' best interests.
