Workshop | Preparing for an early-stage startup funding round: an Australian legal perspective

Preparing for an early-stage funding round takes more than a pitch deck.

You need the right legal setup.

You need the right documents.

You need to know what investors will focus on.

This in-person workshop gives you a clear legal roadmap for an early-stage raise in Australia.

Led by Rebecca Dooley, Partner at Addisons.

You will learn:

• The key legal steps in a typical early-stage raise

• The documents investors expect to see

• The common legal issues that slow down fundraising

• What to fix before due diligence starts

• A simple action plan you can execute after the session

Ask yourself:

• If an investor asked for your key docs tomorrow, are you ready?

• Would your cap table and founder arrangements stand up to due diligence?

• Do you know what you can negotiate in a term sheet?

Who this is for:

• Founders planning to raise in the next 3-12 months

• Startups currently speaking with investors

• Teams who want to reduce risk and move faster through the process
