Matt is an acknowledged expert in the fields of venture capital, joint ventures and mergers and acquisitions. The 2022 edition of the Chambers UK Guide highlights him as a leading individual for venture capital.
As a technology and digital media specialist, he is known for his representation of growth companies in these sectors and for his work relating to early-stage venture capital funds. Matt has become the lawyer of choice for many IT, technology and digital media entrepreneurs and investors, due to his expertise, people-friendly approach and ability to provide informed, pragmatic and commercially astute advice.
He assists clients on a wide range of corporate matters, including setting up businesses. He has advised in relation to numerous venture capital investments in tech start-ups and early-stage businesses.
His experience of working in-house at Telehouse Europe, a leading provider of co-location services to the IT and telecoms industries, means he has an in-depth understanding of all legal issues that technology companies can face.
Both Matt Cunningham and Angus Young are effective, and attentive, corporate lawyers, and I routinely refer companies to them.
