Company Law and Corporate Finance

A significant factor in the success of corporate plans in the technology and media industry is the accurate design of structures governed by corporate law and how those structures change, because of either financing, cooperation, or optimization with respect to tax and liability law. Germany's corporate law structure is very different than the British and American legal traditions, and care should be taken to take German law fully into account.
