CastaldiPartners with Marelli in the joint-venture with Punch

CastaldiPartners assisted Marelli Group, one of the world leaders in the supply of high-tech products and systems for the automotive industry, in the creation of a strategic joint venture with the French-Belgian group Punch (which acquired the former General Motor Propulsion System in Turin). The joint-venture will deal with the development, assembly and manufacturing of integrated electrified axles (e-axles) for electric vehicles.

 The CastaldiPartners team, led by Gaspare Dori, was composed of Steven Sprague, Martine Monnier, Leïla Haye, Antoine Chomette, Camille Gibert and Nicolò Nisi. Alberto Dal Ferro and Federica Iorio followed the regulatory aspects. Tim Hewitt, VP, Commercial Legal at Marelli, and Sonia Piani, Head of Legal and Compliance of Punch, coordinated the transaction as in-house counsel. Punch was assisted by Alexandra Rohmert, of CMS Francis Lefebvre.
