The Corporate – M&A – Private Equity team has recognised experience and expertise in the following areas:
- disposal or external growth operations, particularly with industrial players, mid-caps, entrepreneurs and family businesses,
- private equity (venture capital, setting up complex management packages), particularly with French Tech players (including Unicorns)
- group restructurings (subsidiarisation, mergers, etc.) and the establishment of capital partnerships between economic players (joint ventures, partial contributions of assets, etc.),
We are convinced that, in addition to technical legal expertise, the ability to incorporate a client’s operational, business, managerial or family constraints into the advisory services is what makes the difference. That is why our Corporate – M&A – Private Equity Team is made up of particularly curious and entrepreneurial attorneys with a genuine knowledge of non-legal operational issues and who are used to working as a team with your other advisors (investment banks, asset engineers, chartered accountants, notaries, etc.).
More than simple attorneys, our goal is for our Corporate M&A – Private Equity Team to become a true sparring partner for you to turn to for more than just legal advice.
Working closely and continuously with the other INLO teams, our M&A Corporate – Private Equity Team endeavours to anticipate the issues specific to each operation, particularly in terms of tax, social security, regulations and IP/IT/Privacy matters.
