Startup equity & convertible notes explained - ep. #26

Startup equity and convertible notes are about to be fully explained! Early-stage entrepreneurs have to learn a lot of new vocabulary, technical & legal details, to ensure their initial rounds of outside financing go well. In this video I am being interviewed by Fellows at ASIF Ventures, European micro-VC, focused on student-led startups, and we do a deep dive into:  

  • Comparing direct startup equity investments vs convertible notes 
  • Discussing intricacies of founder's dilution over time 
  • Tackling valuation challenges   

... and much more!
