Law Office of Flores and Ofrin expressed intention to Partner with Leave a Nest Capital to Support Philippine Startups

MANILA, PHILIPPINES – Leave a Nest Capital Co., Ltd. (LC), one of the investment bodies of the Leave a Nest Group, is pleased to announce that the Law Office of Flores and Ofrin (FAO), a prominent legal firm located in the Philippines, has expressed intention to partner together to support deep technology startups in the Philippines. This collaboration aims to strengthen the deep technology startup ecosystem in the Philippines by leveraging the combined expertise of LC and FAO.

Currently, LC has only four (4) investees in the Philippines, including Wela Online Corporation, SolX Technologies, Inc., Anihan Technologies, Inc., and Galansiyang, Inc., all of which are alumni of the TECH PLANTER in the Philippines. On the other hand, FAO has supported TECH PLANTER in the Philippines for the past two years, as the firm has also seen the potential of these deep technology startups and how they can bring change to the Philippines.

The two entities met during the TECH PLANTER in the Philippines 2025 where both of them were partner companies of the event. As a partner of this event, Leave a Nest Capital aimed to look for possible strategic partners in the Philippines to aid in further developing and supporting the deep technology startup ecosystem of the Philippines. In the pursuit of supporting startups, the expertise of different professionals are generally needed, including law firms and accounting firms, to make sure that these startups are properly and sustainably operated.

This is when they met with the Law Office of Flores and Ofrin who has been a valuable partner of Tech Planter since 2024. FAO has provided advisory services and legal support to startups, both incorporated and pre-incorporation startups. Their extensive experience in building intangible assets such as patents, trademarks, and supplier or buyer contracts, aligns seamlessly with Leave a Nest Capital's mission to support startups in the Philippines to further advance science and technology for global happiness.

The collaboration between the two parties was expressed during a meeting held on May 20, 2025, attended by representatives from Leave a Nest Capital, Leave a Nest Japan, and FAO. Key discussions revolved around strategies to create value for startups, enhance intellectual property portfolios, and establish sustainable business structures to attract investments.

As an initial step, FAO and Leave a Nest Capital will execute a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), formalizing their intent to collaborate.
