ScaleUp Speaker Series: Raising Venture Capital Investment

Morrison Foerster offers a free ten-part series on the legal side of founding a startup. This weekly Friday seminar will arm you with the knowledge needed to manage the legal aspects of launching, funding, and growing a startup, with insights to avoid common mistakes that can have serious consequences down the road. We are hosting this cycle of ScaleUp Speaker Series as a hybrid event offering participants the option to either attend virtually or in person in our Palo Alto office at 755 Page Mill Road, Palo Alto, CA, and kindly note that we will also provide lunch.

Topics covered in this one hour session include:

• Typical capital structure of a venture-backed startup
• Rights, preferences and privileges of preferred stock (including waterfall distribution of acquisition proceeds)
• Capitalization tables and liquidation models
• Venture capital term sheets
• Due diligence process and issues
