Reed Smith attorneys kicked-off the partnership Monday at the first quarterly meeting. Alloy 26 currently is home to a wide array of Pittsburgh companies, including technology startups, entrepreneurs, small businesses and freelancers in various professions and industries.
“As a leading co-working space in the city of Pittsburgh, Alloy 26 offers all the essential ingredients for a successful partnership,” said Reed Smith partner Matthew Mohn, a member of the firm’s Global Corporate Practice and leader of the firm’s Emerging Growth / Venture Capital practice in the U.S. “We approached Alloy 26 for a number of reasons, most notably its proximity to the firm’s office and prime location in Nova Place, which is a key hub of innovation since it is home to Innovation Works and Pittsburgh Technology Council."
Reed Smith has retained a dedicated desk, which will be staffed one day each week by one or more of a team of 10+ attorneys who provide topline legal consulting to companies on various topics and issues, including entity formation, capital raising, employment matters, intellectual property issues, and commercial agreements.
Alloy 26 is the largest co-working space in Pittsburgh. Located in the heart of Pittsburgh’s North Side in Nova Place, Alloy 26 provides great companies with office space, amenities, and programming to help you build the next big thing.
“We are thrilled to partner with Reed Smith on this new initiative that supports our efforts in providing learning opportunities and meaningful connections to the members of Alloy 26,” said Alloy 26’s business development manager Christine Musial. “We are excited for this partnership and looking forward to more corporate opportunities such as this one to expand on our mission.”
“Today we celebrate yet another aspect of Reed Smith’s commitment to the Pittsburgh community through this new venture with Alloy 26,” said Ronald Francis, the firm’s Pittsburgh Office Managing Partner. “We are grateful for this opportunity to continue our work with the next generation of business owners. It’s exciting and rewarding to be a major part of both Pittsburgh’s heritage and future.”
