The Paul, Weiss team that worked on this fundraise and connected matters included corporate partners Victoria Forrester, Matthew Goldstein, Marco Masotti, Manuel Frey and Brad Finkelstein, and counsel Femi Austin; tax partner Brian Grieve, and counsel Sohail Itani; and executive compensation counsel Jake Glazeski.
