Andrew Harper and Hilarie Bellis Sexton from Goodwin and Teddy Tankersley from EY will guide you through a sample term sheet, covering key economic and control terms, and sharing real-world examples to help you navigate common pitfalls. We'll also explore how specific provisions can impact future financing rounds and discuss strategies for negotiating terms that support long-term growth. The session will conclude with an interactive Q&A, where you can address specific challenges. The workshop will be moderated by Emily Zhen from Zeal Capital Partners.
