HortenCC represents entrepreneurial and emerging growth companies and the investors and investment banking firms that finance them. We concentrate on helping entrepreneurs get companies started, find financing and structure and grow their businesses. From business planning and capital raising, to protecting intellectual property assets, to negotiating mergers and commercial transactions, we provide the expertise and experience needed to support the growth of emerging growth companies. Frequently, we complement a client’s management team through our outsourced general counsel services, taking a senior advisory role and participating in day-to-day discussions and board-level decisions.
We have worked closely with numerous emerging growth companies from a variety of industries and we have become knowledgeable about those industries. We have been involved in every type of corporate finance transaction, including start-up or seed financings, “angel” investments, venture capital financings, institutional financings, and later-stage equity or mezzanine financings. Because we handle so many angel and venture capital financings, our corporate law firm has a deep and up-to-date knowledge of the current conditions in the rapidly changing capital markets. We are therefore able to help our clients structure financing terms that are competitive in the marketplace.
