token launches, pre-launch fundraising by simple agreements for

Regulatory
We carry out an in-depth analysis of your project and provide a
full written memorandum of advice. We can work with regulators to
get your project or your business entity (including exchanges and
custodians) licensed or registered if appropriate and
necessary.
Structuring
We advise on the most suitable vehicle for your project and, if
necessary, can provide cross-jurisdictional advice for the most
appropriate structure. We work with experienced formation agents,
AML compliance forms, fund administrators, auditors, secretaries,
directors and other service providers to achieve your objectives.
We can draft or review the documents needed for your project
including SAFTs, SAFEs, token purchase agreements, warrants and
options grants, fund documents, incentive schemes, service
agreements and other terms and conditions.
