Private Equity
Private equity firms have permanently altered the landscape of
corporate transactions. In line with this market development, our
corporate transaction practice acts on behalf of domestic and
international private equity funds as well as business angels
entering into new investments, seeking to restructure existing
investments or effectuating an exit. Kennedy Van der Laan is
equally experienced in acting on behalf of the target company, its
founders and management teams seeking private equity funding.
Our private equity practice focuses on four industry sectors:
biotech, technology, media and telecom. This focus is driven by our
in depth understanding of these sectors, which allows Kennedy Van
der Laan to look beyond the legal technicalities to the strategic
considerations that drive the transaction itself and ultimately the
success of the client.
Our goal is always to add value to the transaction at hand by
leveraging our deep understanding of the market into strategic and
pragmatic support to the client. Our expertise covers the full life
cycle of a private equity investment, whether it be structuring a
seed fund in the biotech sector or maximizing the exit potential of
a fully mature investment. Our corporate transaction practice is
supported by our expertise in related areas such as business
restructuring, finance and securities law.
