“We aim to be a curious and committed partner throughout the entire business journey,” says Carl Fhager, Lawyer and Partner at MAQS.

A partner for growing companies

MAQS has extensive experience in supporting companies at every stage – from incorporation and ownership structure to funding rounds, acquisitions, and exits. Their strength lies in combining deep industry knowledge with a tailored approach, always placing client relationships and business value at the center.

“We want to connect with exciting new companies, and Yuncture offers a fantastic platform for entrepreneurs and startups in Gothenburg. Through this partnership, we hope to create new winning collaborations and contribute to successful businesses. We look forward to taking part in concrete activities where we can share our expertise while also learning from innovative entrepreneurs,” Carl continues.

Law as an enabler for growth

For startups, legal decisions are often critical – both in the short and long term. How should ownership be structured? Are the agreements between founders clear enough? How is the company’s innovation protected? Issues relating to ownership structure, cooperation agreements, and the safeguarding of intellectual assets need to be addressed early to reduce risks and establish a solid foundation for growth.

“We often meet entrepreneurs who have waited too long to formalize important relationships or underestimated the importance of protecting their intellectual property. That’s where we at MAQS see an opportunity to make a real difference,” says Carl.

What does this partnership mean for startups in the Yuncture network?

As part of our ecosystem, our startups will have the opportunity to benefit from MAQS’s legal expertise through workshops, networking events, and, when needed, individual consultations. This provides companies with the tools to manage legal matters strategically – not just as a safeguard, but as a driver of business value.

“Our ambition is to be the connection point between startups and the business community. As Yuncture has grown, it has felt natural to bring on board strong partners like MAQS, who have both the expertise and the drive to support the next generation of entrepreneurs,” says Nikita, CEO of Yuncture.

A broader initiative moving forward

The partnership with MAQS is part of Yuncture’s broader initiative to build a network of experts within key areas that are crucial for growing companies. The goal is to create a toolbox of specialist competence and, in the future, also connect partner organizations to maximize synergies. Plans are already in place to bring on more partners within selected areas.

“We are very pleased that MAQS believes in us and is joining us on this journey. They contribute not only with knowledge but also with a genuine commitment to Gothenburg’s entrepreneurial scene,” Nikita concludes.
