The increasing speed of scientific and technical progress is closely related to the growing speed of international information exchange. The development of new technologies not only necessitates a further development of the actual technology law, to which the protection of intellectual property and licensing, research and development contracts can be counted. Equally important is the development of social structures that enable adequate consideration of the divergent interests typically found in young start-up companies.
The implementation of new scientific and technological findings in successful ventures poses special challenges for legal advice. We support founders and investors in the drafting of company and investment agreements, in negotiations with private or institutional investors in seed rounds or advanced financing rounds, and in exits. We advise your company on its foundation, the implementation of financing rounds, negotiations on cooperation or licensing projects as well as on research and development agreements.
Our clients in the start-up sector include companies of various sizes, particularly from the medical technology, biotechnology and IT sectors.
