About me
I specialise in M&A and venture capital transactions. My focus is supporting startups, from advising on founder relations to legal support on raising additional capital or exits.
Professional highlights
Supporting transactions. I have taken part in supporting prominent M&A and venture capital transactions. More specifically, I have participated in a transaction to attract financing from angel investors, based on a convertible loan contract construed under the Belarusian law, which was the first of its kind in Belarus.
Experience in diverse fields. Apart from corporate law, I have experience in supporting projects and advising on intellectual property, labour law, personal data protection, special legal regimes and token sales.
Understanding of IT startups. I have experience of working with IT startups, so that I have a good understanding of the needs of these kinds of businesses and can offer solutions appropriate for them.
