The first part of the Founder Series, ‘Exit Ready’ focuses on Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A). The series is an initiative of Orrick’s Founder Series which provides monthly tips specifically designed for UK start-ups, at each stage of their life-cycle. This could range from incorporation of a company to exploring possible exit strategies. This informational series is the brainchild conceived by the members of Orrick’s market-leading London Technology Companies Group (TCG). Other practice members also contribute to this series.
The London TCG team of Orrick, which ranks at Band 1, has a strong track record in growth financings and tech M&A transactions. In 2022, the team effectively closed over 320 growth financings and tech M&A deals totaling US$9.76bn. This shows the team’s immense capability and dominance in the European venture capital tech landscape.
The ‘Exit Ready’ series specifically aims at equipping start-ups with the necessary knowledge to navigate the complex process involved with M&A transactions. Given Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP’s strong track record, following the series could prove beneficial to start-ups contemplating an exit strategy.
