Shira Azran assists domestic hi-tech companies on fundraises, bolt-on acquisitions, equity sales and tender offers, and Mike Rimon focuses on technology, medical devices and telecoms transactions. Further names of note include Itay Frishman, who is active across an array of corporate and capital markets work; Ariel Aminetzah, who leverages his former in-house experience to comprehensively counsel large Israeli companies on their corporate transactions; and Talya Gerstler, who is gaining market recognition across a myriad international and domestic corporate and commercial transactions.
