The workshop is highly practical, we will guide you through actually finding potential investors for your startup.

Afternoon: Negotiating Terms

Learn how venture investments work by actually negotiating a term sheet. In this intensive group excercise you will experience a realistic negotiation over terms including valuation. You'll experience common pitfals and traps and you'll learn tricks you can use to minimise your chance of failing to raise money and maximise your chance to successfully close an investment round.

The negotiation is a great way to understand key venture investing terms and how investing works.

This is a key learning experience for anyone contemplating raising capital from angel or venture investors. It is also valuable for angel investors - even experienced investors have found it valuable.
