    Our clients are mainly companies that relate to technology in one way or another. While some are directly involved in the business of developing technology, others find themselves in the need of new technologies to subsist or sustain growth or have implemented business models essentially based on the use of technological solutions. 

    Our Venture Capital & Technology department stands out, for its capabilities to handle high-profile transactions with a sophisticated team of lawyers working across labor, tax, regulatory, intellectual property and privacy matters to support technology clients and emerging entrepreneurs in their businesses.

    For startups and emerging tech ecosystems, where capital efficiency is crucial, we advise our clients in both the early stages of their projects, such as getting organized and incorporated, as well as in taking them to the next level by raising money for their financing rounds, whether it be through friends and family, angel investors, investment funds, or strategic corporate investors.

    For investors, we provide strategic advice in the structuring, drafting and negotiation of stock purchase agreements, shareholders’ agreements and other documentation to execute their investments, with the aim of maximizing returns and averting potential risks, with experience in both, local and foreign markets.

    For Incubators, Accelerators and Investors’ Networks, we play an important educational role by participating in venture capital conferences and workshops that also enable us to support startups throughout the founding process and connecting them with angel investors.

    For corporate investors, we advise them on corporate venturing and strategic investments by structuring and negotiating preliminary and definitive agreements to execute their investments in startups or in the execution of strategic commercial alliances in order to capitalize on new technologies in the future and create synergies with the corporation’s existing business.

    For both growing and established technology companies abroad, we provide the right legal assistance in their business expansion to Peru, helping them to quickly and comfortably start and develop their business activity in the country, throughout a broad range of legal matters, that involve, among others, advice in the process of incorporation of the company, the analysis of applicable regulatory obligations, and tax and employment matters.
