Amber Studio’s post-money valuation reaches $190 million, one of the highest valuations ever obtained by a Romanian company in a Series A funding round, and a significant part of the funds will be used to develop Amber through new mergers and acquisitions.
“Amber’s rating is an extraordinary one for a Romanian Series A company, but it is merely a fair reflection of the value of a business built, in a highly competitive global field, by one of the most beautiful teams I have ever met.(…)”, said Alexandru Bîrsan, Partner at Filip & Company.
The Filip & Company team was coordinated by Alexandru Bîrsan and included in key roles Olga Nita (partner), Andreea Banica (senior associate) and Andrei Anghel (associate).
The Filip & Company team assisted Amber Studio with Romanian law matters, with respect to the preparation, negotiation and signing of the shareholder agreement and the sale contracts under which some of Amber’s shareholders sold shares to the investment fund advised by Emona Capital LLP.
The lawyers at Filip & Company have held significant roles in many of the key M&A transactions in Romania. Whether there were privatisations, private equity, venture capital or growth capital transactions or other complex M&A deals, in very many cases at least one of the parties was legally assisted by Filip & Company.
