It would be nice if this were all very simple. Unfortunately, as with most legal matters, there are many layers and terms to navigate. This session will offer a high-level summary of financing options available, along with the pros and cons of various types of financing. Of importance, the conversation will help to take the mystery out of fundraising and the key terms of deals that you need to be aware of, from preferences to option pools.
