Reno Lunch N Learn | How To Exit: Navigating Good Times, Bad Times, and Knowing When to Shut It Down
About
As a founder, your exit is both a fundamental goal, and an inevitability. Personal priorities, economics, market dynamics, and competing opportunities all shape the decision of whether to exit, when and how to execute successfully – and founders must continuously reassess that decision as circumstances change.
In this session, Joseph DeLuca will walk through a practical framework for thinking about venture exits: the different types of exits, key factors to weigh, and how to time them well. Drawing on his own exits over several decades – with candid, hindsight commentary – plus additional case examples, he’ll offer an experience-based view of what actually goes into this decision.
Who It’s For
Founders at any stage of the venture life cycle. Also valuable for investors as well.
