Raising external funding is a major milestone for most startups – and often one of the first situations where founders negotiate directly with investors. But what should founders actually expect when the first term sheet lands on the table from a potential investor? 

Join us for a practical workshop designed for startup founders and early-stage companies preparing for their first financing round. During the session, we will walk you through the key elements of a typical term sheet, explain what the clauses mean in practice, and discuss the most important negotiation points in order to secure the investment.
