Emerging Companies & Venture Capital

Startups grow quickly, but so do the legal gaps that may emerge at an early stage. HM&P advises founders and venture capital funds throughout each fundraising round, including company structuring (including offshore structures commonly used in the region), shareholders’ agreements and term sheets, convertible investment instruments, ESOP programmes, and intellectual property and data matters—the core assets of technology companies. We understand the pace of the startup ecosystem: practical advice, clear language, and a focus on the risks that genuinely affect valuation and the ability to raise subsequent rounds of funding.
