M&A Year in Review | 2024
We advised Rice University on its launch of RBL LLC,
a biotech venture creation studio developed out of
the Rice Biotech Launch Pad, the university’s biotech
innovation accelerator.
This partnership between academia, industry, and health
care positions RBL to transform medical discoveries
into real-world solutions that improve lives globally.
Lawyers in our Houston office led the transaction,
with support from our New York office and our
intellectual property and tax practices.
We advised Universidad Andrés Bello (UNAB),
a private Chilean-based nonprofit university, on its
US $124 million acquisition of Post University, a U.S.based for-profit university.
The acquisition marks a milestone for UNAB and the
Chilean higher education system, expanding international
opportunities for the university community and its students.
Lawyers in our corporate and education teams in our
Baltimore and Washington, D.C. offices led the transaction,
with support from several U.S. offices and practices.
