- Early stage funding rounds (Seed / Series A)
- Venture debt
- M&A

- Technology transfers & university spin-outs
The Withers tech venture capital practice is also unique with a dedicated venture debt team, supporting high growth venture-backed companies navigate this alternative and less dilutive means of financing. Companies will commonly (although not always) take on venture debt closely after an equity fundraise (generally Series A/B and beyond), as this can give them a stronger negotiating position and access to more competitive terms.
