By Jeremy Glaser and Sebastian Lucier

In the first installment of Mintz’s multi-part series addressing common questions relating to establishing a new enterprise, Jeremy Glaser and Sebastian Lucier discuss the timing of forming an entity, the differences between the two most common choices (corporation and LLC) and the best jurisdiction to position a company for outside investment.

I love to represent growing ventures, particularly technology-based companies in software, mobile applications, biotechnology, medical devices, and clean energy. For more than 30 years I’ve helped companies raise angel and venture financing and achieve successful liquidity events, such as IPOs and sales. Having served as Executive Vice President of Mergers and Acquisitions for a venture-backed B2B software company that raised over $100 million — and as general counsel for an investment management company that managed billions of dollars — I also know first-hand what it’s like to be inside a growing business. When you work with me you get an experienced partner who knows the entire ecosystem — the law, tech and life science industries, the innovation community, the investment management business, and venture capital firms and other investors. I bring all of that experience together to help clients of every size achieve success.
