This presentation will cover some of the key topics that you will need think about as you prepare your startup for venture capital funding. The speaker will address the following and provide context for the COVID-19 era: 1) Should you be raising money from venture capital investors yet, or does it make sense to seek more angel/friends and family financing to allow you to better succeed when you seek venture capital funding? 2) What kinds of marketing documents will you need? 3) Do you have a compelling team, including the right advisors? 4) Who are your targets? 5) Is your pitch and presentation ready for a prime time audience? 6) Can you effectively answer the questions you will face? 7) Is your company prepared for legal due diligence? The speaker, veteran startup and corporate attorney Greg Chin of Duane Morris LLP, has seen hundreds of startups succeed and fail. Greg will address these issues and more!
