Larry Chu

Co-founder and Managing Partner, SilverCircle

Larry Chu co-founded SilverCircle after a career advising technology companies and investors on mergers and acquisitions.

Larry is a co-founder and managing partner of SilverCircle. His public advisory-board biography at Finalis describes a long career in strategic transactions, including serving as co-chair of Goodwin’s Global M&A Group.

His experience connects legal structure with the commercial objectives of founders, companies and their backers. In an investing context, that perspective is relevant to choices about financing, governance, strategic partnerships and potential acquisitions—while keeping transaction-specific legal advice distinct from general founder guidance.

Finalis also lists him as a board member of The Nest Campus. Together with his role at SilverCircle, which Finalis describes as a community-driven venture fund, this adds an institutional founder-community connection to his transaction-advisory background.
