Advising on Transformational AI Transactions

We advised a late-stage venture capital group on a highly competitive secondary opportunity in OpenAI, one of the most closely held and strategically significant companies in artificial intelligence.

Amid limited liquidity and a carefully managed cap table, we secured direct access to primary equity from existing shareholders, navigating complex transfer mechanics and governance considerations.

Our deep connectivity across private capital and limited partner ecosystems underpins our ability to originate and structure such transactions. We are trusted to manage high-profile deals in frontier markets where discretion and relationships are often more valuable than capital alone.
