SUMMARY:Angel Investing 101: Valuation and Term Sheets
DESCRIPTION:Join the Urban Capital Network for an informative talk regarding due diligence of Angel investment opportunities. \nOne of the most challenging tasks when evaluating a company before it has revenue is determining a value. There are no agreed upon standards\, and often no comparables\, unlike companies that have a longer track record with historical financial statements\, assets\, and revenue. Ultimately\, early-stage valuations are determined through negotiations between investors and founders. Each has their own assumptions\, projections and financial goals. Equipped with tools and a strategy will help you develop a basis for negotiations. Join Urban Capital Network for an introduction to valuation strategies and negotiating deal terms for early-stage investments. \nDuring the session\, you can expect to learn the following: \n\nHow to assess and apply valuation factors and criteria\,\nValuation Methods\,\nTerm sheet basics\,\nNegotiation points.\n\nAbout the speaker \nLenny Saizan is the co-founder and Managing Director of Urban Capital Network (UCN)\, an investment firm dedicated to democratizing premium investment opportunities for a wider range of investors.
