FLG Partners review

Senior partner-led; deep-tech & hardware exits; partner-dependent IP.

Verdict

Senior partner-led Bay Area firm with deep hardware and deep-tech exposure — several partners have run finance through IP-heavy hardware exits. IP capability is partner-dependent. Best when you need partner-level seniority on a complex cap-table situation involving IP licensing.

What customers praise

Senior partner bench; documented hardware & deep-tech exit experience; complex cap-table fluency with IP-licensing components.

What customers criticise

IP capability varies by partner; no firm-wide IP-valuation framework; low AI Operator capability.

Best for

Bay Area venture-backed deep-tech and hardware companies with complex cap tables where IP forms a material part of enterprise value
