Felipe Hasenohr, an associate in the Capital Markets and Ventura Capital and FinTech team, went to Berkeley to join the University of California to pursue an LLM. “I had other options, but I finally opted for Berkeley because of the prestige of the university, which entails being able to generate new relationships and ties with highly qualified lawyers from different parts of the world,” he explained.

The program lasts one year and Felipe’s objective is to deepen his knowledge in venture capital, fintech, new technologies, as well as to improve his skills in matters related to investment funds and capital market regulation. “Having the opportunity to study outside Chile -he added- gives you the chance to meet lawyers from different jurisdictions, which, on the one hand, allows you to open new job opportunities, as well as to observe how to approach the operations that we have to live daily in our profession, but from different points of view, according to the training and experience that one has”.

Good luck Felipe!
