Dr. Eric Belsley draws upon his impressive technical and entrepreneurial backgrounds to counsel private companies - particularly emerging businesses involved in Internet and computer applications - on their financing and growth. He represents portfolio companies and angel, venture capital and private equity investors in structuring financing transactions, and also advises companies and private equity and other private investment funds on their formation and governance. Eric's corporate work also includes guidance to public and private companies on mergers and acquisitions; complying with filing and other SEC requirements; the use of limited liability companies and other tax flow-through vehicles; and general corporate matters.

For all his clients, Eric's technical knowledge of financial modeling is a significant advantage in helping them structure financing and other transactions. And his experience as founder, web publisher and editor-in-chief of the Mac Resource Page (www.macresource.com), a daily news e-zine about Macintosh computers sold to Price.com in 2001, gives him unique insight into the needs and viewpoints of emerging business organizations.
