Your First Audit Won't Wait
SOC 2, the audit, the cap-table cleanup. They all show up the week you raise your Series A, and they never wait for a convenient quarter.
Thursday, July 30, in San Francisco. A small founder dinner for Series-A founders staring down the audit moment that lands the second the round closes.
Around the table:
A startup-banking lead who watches where the money actually goes
A founder-finance operator who has run the books through dozens of raises
A compliance founder who turns SOC 2 from a fire drill into a checklist
A global-payroll operator on hiring and contractors across borders
A startup-legal team on the cap-table cleanup that smart raises front-run
No panel, no pitch. Just founders who have been through the audit and the operators who run it, comparing notes over dinner.
Bring the question you have been putting off until after the round.
