May 22nd | Discover what to negotiate before a funding round: the key role of the Term Sheet and Shareholders' Agreement
Are you ready to raise capital without compromising your company's future?
The TechTur Legal Series return this May with a new session focused on one of the most critical milestones for any startup: funding rounds and the agreements that can define the company's future.
As usual, we will feature the expertise of MyLegalinbox, providing a practical, business-oriented perspective on what to consider before signing a Term Sheet or a Shareholders' Agreement (SHA).
During the session, we will address key questions such as:
✅ What exactly is a Term Sheet, and which clauses tend to have the biggest impact on future rounds?
✅ How can specific clauses in the Shareholders' Agreement affect control, dilution, and the eventual exit of the startup?
✅ What are the most common mistakes founders make during a funding round?
✅ How to negotiate with investors without compromising governance or business scalability?
✅ Which tax implications should be considered to avoid unexpected hits for both founders and investors?
Furthermore, we will discuss real-world scenarios and share practical recommendations on how to approach a funding round from both a legal and strategic standpoint, specifically for companies in the travel and tech sectors.
How will we do it?
🔍 By clearly explaining common industry concepts (liquidation preference, anti-dilution, drag-along, vesting, etc.).
🔍 By sharing practical tips based on real-life experiences and common startup cases.
🔍 By answering specific questions from attendees regarding investor negotiations, corporate structures, and common risks.
🗣️ The session will also include an open debate where participating companies can raise real doubts and share their own experiences.
