Takanori has been involved in a variety of domestic/cross-border M&A transactions, joint ventures, capital and business alliance transactions, corporate reorganizations, private equity deals, and startup transactions. His areas of specialization include a wide range of corporate matters, including corporate governance, shareholders’ meetings, and compliance. He has particularly extensive experience advising on cross-border/regional M&A transactions, both inbound and outbound, including those involving Europe, the U.S. and Asia, for which he draws on his experience working and studying in the U.K. He is familiar with the latest corporate and M&A practices under English law, and handles transactions in a flexible, timely manner tailored to meet clients’ precise needs and expectations; he also draws on his deep understanding of business, and the experience gained through his secondment to a Japanese listed company, during which he dealt with legal matters stemming from the client’s business operations.
