Goodwin, Startup & VC Partner Abe Kwon | Founding Philly Ep. 16

On this episode, I interview Abe Kwon, Startup & VC Partner at Goodwin. Goodwin is a global law firm serving the innovators and the investors in a rapidly changing, technology-driven economy.

Goodwin's Philadelphia office focuses on the life sciences, healthcare, and private equity industries, including where they converge with other sectors such as technology.

Goodwin announced earlier this year that a team of 14 partners have joined the firm in its Life Sciences, Healthcare, Private Equity and Complex Litigation and Dispute Resolution practices across a number of offices, including its newly-established Philadelphia office.

Abe counsels startups and venture-backed companies throughout their growth cycle, including issues related to incorporation, venture fundraising, corporate governance, commercial contracts, strategic partnerships, day-to-day operations, and M&A transactions.

His clients include emerging companies in various industries, including fintech, blockchain/Web3, SaaS, digital health, and life sciences. He also represents venture capital funds and corporate venture arms as they look to back promising high-growth emerging companies.

Listen to Abe share how he supports founders in the early stages of their journey, lessons every founder and entrepreneur should consider when building a company, and a look into what happen with Silicon Valley Bank and what founders should be thinking about moving forward.
