​Fundraising is already hard enough, legal missteps can make it even harder...

​Most founders don't know what they don't know, and a wrong move can kill momentum or worse.

​Join us for a conversation with Donald Lee, startup and venture lawyer at Prospera Law, and Jason Yeh. They'll unpack some of the most common legal pitfalls founders make while fundraising, and how to avoid them.

We’ll cover things like:

  • ​What are the issues or mistakes in initial set-up that could create problems in a future financing
  • ​How to think about SAFEs or other convertible securities in a “pre-seed” financing round
  • ​ What are the most important issues to think about and negotiate in a priced equity financing

​…and more.

​The Best Part! (free legal discussion / Q&A)


The best part is our open Q&A at the end with Don and Jason so bring your expensive legal questions 😊. Can’t wait to see you all there!
