Start-ups - Answering your Legal Questions...

You have a start-up but have some questions - we are here to answer them in this session!  What would you like us to cover?  

In this practical session we will consider capital raising for start-ups in Aotearoa New Zealand and will answer on topics like:

• Raising funding and the key things to know
• The critical documents like term sheets, subscription agreements, shareholder agreements
• How ‘vesting’, ESOPs and founder incentivisation works
• Other options such as Family & Friends, SAFEs, convertible notes and loans
• Which options suit which type of start-up?
• Complying with the rules of the FMA (Financial Markets Authority)
• Founder dynamics we have seen and how to avoid the ones that cause implosion
• How to do all the above while staying legally safe.

When attending you will also qualify for a free conversation with one of our team to discuss your situation as well.
