Attorney
and access,
Wayne regularly advises clients on complex sale and development transactions including mergers and acquisitions, traditional, mezzanine and venture capital financing, strategic alliances, joint ventures and co-development projects and technology licensing. His clients include public and private companies, entrepreneurs and start-up businesses in a wide variety of industries such as, traditional and high tech manufacturing, new media, internet, professional services, and biotechnology. While his practice embraces all aspects of general business representation, he focuses on transactions where he can add or capture value for clients by crafting solutions that integrate business, financial, tax, accounting and legal considerations. Because many of the firm’s clients have tended to start as entrepreneurs in leading edge industries, he has a long history of addressing legal and business issues in emerging industries where there is little to no legal or business road map and many of the issues require creative and textured solutions. Wayne has been a member of the board of directors of three publicly held companies and served on audit, compensation, and corporate governance committees. He co-founded the Connecticut Nanotechnology Initiative and served on the State of Connecticut Nanotechnology Advisory Panel until 2010. Wayne has lectured on legal and business issues involving strategic alliances, venture capital, accounting, nanotechnology, and the internet. He received his B.A., cum laude, from American University and his J.D., with honors, from the University of Connecticut School of Law. Wayne is a member of the Connecticut Bar.
