Overview
A
convertible note is a relatively simple and flexible instrument for start-ups
to raise money from 'angel' investors especially in hard times like the present
when VC and other institutional financing is scarce. Join us for a
session on the basics of convertible notes to learn if this is a good route for
your start-up to pursue. Our sessions are candid, interactive and informal. We
want you to walk away with the real story behind how things work so you can
make it happen yourself. Bring
your questions!
