Join MoFo’s NY ECVC Team and NYU Tandon Future Labs for a live negotiation of Term Sheets!
MoFo partners Jae Zhou and Frank Paz will represent Craig Wilson of Collaborative Collective and Steven Kuyan of Luro Health and the debate will be moderated by MoFo ECVC Co-Chair Pete Fusco.
Find out which terms are most important to each side of a negotiation, learn how to close an investment round despite competing interests, and see the stakes behind each clause.
Here’s how this works:
- Each side (startup and investor) and their representative legal counsel (a MoFo Partner) reveal to the audience the critical points they are targeting in the negotiation.
- A debate-style format follows, moderated by Pete Fusco, co-chair of the VC practice at Morrison Foerster.
- The audience asks MoFo lawyers, the founder, and the investor any questions that might have popped up during the negotiation.
Playing the founder role in the negotiation will be Steve Kuyan, co-founder and CEO of Luro Health, a startup combatting obesity for Medicare and Medicaid patients at Community Health Centers. Steve will be represented by Jae Zhou, a startup and venture capital partner at MoFo and based in New York City.
Playing the role of investor will be Craig Wilson, a Venture Partner at Collaborative Fund, a NYC-based fund backing entrepreneurs pushing the world forward. Craig will be represented by Frank Paz, a startup and venture capital partner at MoFo and based in New York City.
We look forward to seeing you there!
