Masterclass #5 - Due Diligence: The Devil In The Details - for Founders & Investors
Event description
Why do Due Diligence?
Research on Angel investing portfolios shows that more and better due diligence (DD) increases the probability of both venture success and investment returns.
Good quality DD is a discipline that follows a repeatable process.
DD on start-ups requires agility and adapting to each venture.
Remember: while luck always plays a part in any success story, a comprehensive and systematic evaluation by the early stage seed and/or Angel investor of the investment proposal will greatly improve the probability of success

- introduces the issues confronting Angels and founders in conducting DD on seed round investments;
- provides tools and guidelines for conducting DD;
- collaborative exercise on sample DD case.
