Latham & Watkins LLP, both independently and often in partnership with mainland lawyers, continues to manage a substantial number of IPOs and subsequent offerings for underwriters and issuers in both Hong Kong and the US. The team has gained particular acclaim for its work on behalf of Chinese TMT and life sciences companies wishing to go public, with clients in the space often benefiting from a one-stop-shop service by virtue of the firm’s broader industry-wide practice groups in those areas. Benjamin Su is also key to the firm’s success in the TMT space, regularly taking the lead for issuers and underwriters on listings in Hong Kong and the US, including for Taiwanese semiconductor companies.
