The team, led by partner Zickie Lim, was named Best Legal Team for Early Stage Deals at the ceremony held at London’s Science Museum.
The award honoured Mills & Reeve for its significant impact on the ecosystem during the past year through actively supporting angel and early stage investment deals, and bringing real added value to the investment process.
Our venture capital and investments team has long been avid supporters of the UK’s early-stage investment market and is recognised for its stellar expertise, high quality of client service and collaborative way of working. Each year the team advises on between 80 and 100 early stage and growth investment deals, with last year’s deals having an aggregate investment value of £450m+.
Zickie commented: “We're absolutely honoured to receive this award, which is testament to the team’s commitment to the early-stage investment sector. The team has an in-depth understanding of the needs and objectives of both entrepreneurs and investors when doing these early-stage and growth investment rounds.
“We work hard to make a significant contribution to the UK’s tech and life sciences eco-system, and ensure we play a pivotal role by sponsoring early-stage community events, bringing the community together, and providing quality networking opportunities, training and thought leadership to the community.”
