Jim Verdonik and Benji Jones
Co-founders
Innovate Capital Law, a firm based in Research Triangle, NC that focuses on technology assisted capital raising transactions to help clients raise capital using a toolbox of evolving business practices, software, legal and financing strategies. Both have advised clients in several billion dollars of capital-raising, M&A and technology licensing transactions. They have also advised clients in transactions for start-ups to public companies to venture capital funds. Benji and Jim have mastered the art of knowing when to use each of these tools and how to collaborate with social media and other marketing companies to conduct offerings with and without traditional investment banking firms. Benji is also currently an attorney with Ward and Smith P.A., and a former Adjunct Professor at Duke University School of Law & Campbell University School of Law. Together, they have written eight books, including The ABCs of Growth Companies and Thinking and Acting Like an Owner-Worker: Raise Capital.
