About this event

Join Foster Swift attorneys and Financial Advisor Reuben Levinsohn for an insightful conversation designed to equip startup founders with essential legal and financial knowledge. While legal and financial advice may not seem like the most thrilling topic, it's crucial for entrepreneurs, especially those in fast-paced, venture-backed environments.

As a startup founder, time is of the essence when preparing your business for a successful exit. Unlike traditional entrepreneurs who may have decades to plan their exit strategy, venture-backed startups often aim to be ready for acquisition within 5-7 years. This accelerated timeline requires a unique set of skills and a deep understanding of how to build a business with a potential sale in mind.

In this session, our experts will cover critical aspects of structuring your business, financial planning, and legal considerations, all tailored to help you navigate the journey from startup to successful exit

Don't miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights and ask your pressing questions in a supportive and engaging environment!
