Venture Capital & Emerging Companies

Overview

Together, venture capital and emerging growth companies are the jet fuel propelling innovation in today’s technology-driven, entrepreneurial economy.

Loeb & Loeb works with high-growth enterprises and their investors, providing creative solutions, savvy dealmaking and practical legal advice at every stage of the business cycle. From entity formation and financing through development, growth and successful exit, we help clients on both sides of the emerging growth market pursue opportunities and overcome challenges to reach their full potential.

Our firm has long been at the forefront of working with pioneers in such fast-moving sectors as digital media, artificial intelligence, health care and life sciences, payments technology, and e-commerce. With one of the largest and most sophisticated interdisciplinary teams of technology, media and entertainment lawyers in the country, we address the full spectrum of early-stage business needs for companies that are changing the way content is created, consumed and monetized, including in the areas of virtual and augmented reality, esports, and advertising technology. We work with entrepreneurs and investors seeking to disrupt traditional business models through artificial intelligence and machine learning, blockchain, and other transformative innovations.

Our Venture Capital and Emerging Companies team advises players on all sides of the deal table, including angel investors and venture capital and private equity funds, sponsor groups, family offices, and other strategic and financial investors. We are well-versed in current market trends and provide sophisticated guidance on fund formation, FDA strategies, and all types of deal structures and financings. We also advise clients on separately managed accounts, secondary purchase and sale arrangements, and co-investment opportunities.

In addition to negotiating and closing the full range of venture and later-stage financings, as well as corporate and other transactional matters — from angel/seed rounds and bridge loans to IPOs or acquisitions — we leverage the full resources of our firm to assist emerging companies and their founders at each phase of development. Our Venture Capital and Emerging Companies team includes lawyers in such critical areas as employment, compensation and benefits; private funds; intellectual property protection; FDA compliance; technology licensing; privacy and data security; and personal tax, estate and wealth planning.
