About me
I assist clients with various matters, including corporate, intellectual property, venture capital and M&A. Passionate about the startup sector, I head the firm’s startup team in Estonia as well as the regional team, and advocate for the development of the sector on a national scale.
Professional highlights
Wide know-how base. Besides my extensive experience in intellectual property, venture capital, corporate, and M&A matters, I also support clients in competition & regulatory issues, data protection, TMT, private equity, and advising private clients. This enables me to provide a comprehensive overview of their challenges and a detailed, well-thought-out plan to resolve them effectively.
Enthusiasm for startups. I have been an active member of the Estonian startup community for years, starting as a team member of the sTARTUp Day business festival while I was a student. As the head of the firm’s startup team in Estonia and the co-head of the regional team, I am dedicated to creating a supportive environment for startups to grow in Estonia and advocating for important legislative changes. I have extensive experience advising startups on various legal matters, including helping internationally known clients like Bolt and Veriff with their fundraising rounds.
Expertise in intellectual property. I believe intellectual property can be both a defence and attack tool, and I know both inside and out. I help clients daily with trademark and copyright matters, including trademark registration and disputes, preparing copyright protection and transfer agreements, drafting C&D letters, combating pirate trademark registrations, and addressing unfair competition.
