[In-Person] Fundraising Fluent: The Do's and Don'ts Every Founder Should Know
This session is offered in-person at Pillsbury (2400 Hanover Street). Sign up for office hours right after by registering here!
Raising capital is one of the highest-stakes moments in a startup's life and the legal missteps founders make early on can haunt a cap table for years.
Join Pillsbury Partner Steven Green for an interactive workshop built for StartX founders, where he’ll break down the practical do's and don'ts of fundraising, from choosing the right instrument (SAFE, convertible note, or priced round) to negotiating term sheets, managing dilution, and avoiding the securities-law traps that can derail a closing.
Come with your toughest fundraising questions — this session is designed to be a working conversation and a chance to build a relationship with an attorney who understands the startup journey.
