REDWOOD CITY – Gunderson Dettmer announced June 27 that Lara Alice Pender has joined the firm’s leading venture capital and growth equity practice as a partner, in the Ann Arbor office.
She joins the firm from Jones Day where she was a partner.
Also a lecturer at the University of Michigan Law School on late-stage venture capital issues, Pender focuses her practice on structuring, negotiating and managing minority- and majority-stake investments, as well as cross-border acquisitions and divestitures, for growth equity, venture capital and other private equity firms and the growth-stage companies in which they invest. She has represented a range of private equity investors, including international corporate venture capital, sovereign wealth and pension funds, in connection with numerous financings of high-valuation companies.
She also guides promising companies in the Midwest through financing, governance and strategic issues as they mature.
