Startup Skills: Part 2 – Venture Capital Funding
Wednesday, April 10, 2024 12:00to13:00
Now that you have a grasp on how much money you need, this workshop will focus on the "deal". You'll learn what is a venture capital fund, its structure and how they operate, and what VCs look for in an early stage innovation driven venture. You'll also learn about the typical elements of a term sheet in connection with equity investments and SAFEs, and caveats when raising money. Finally, we'll explain how a capitalization table works and finish off with a brief overview of minority shareholder rights.
This workshop is facilitated by Derrick Wong (Ronald Chwang EiR).
