Founder’s Guide to SAFE Startup Fundraising - Presented by Carta
Event Information
About this event
Silicon Valley founders have embraced startup fundraising with a Simple Agreement for Future Equity (SAFE). However, most entrepreneurs and many attorneys lack the detailed understanding to make the best decisions when raising startup funds using a SAFE. Many founders gloss over critical SAFE details resulting in unexpectedly high dilution, loss of control, and reduced employee payouts.
Join Fundable Startups and Carta as we cover critical SAFE details including:
• How SAFEs Fit Into a Funding Strategy
• The rationale for and types of SAFEs
• Problems with Pre-Money & Post-Money SAFEs
• The Carta SAFE
• Making SAFEs simple and safe
