We have published a new online tool that allows entrepreneurs and investors to get a real-time assessment of how important deal terms surrounding venture capital financing affect the allocation of value and control between the Founders and the VCs.
This is a project that we are very passionate about: A (relatively) simple tool that helps Entrepreneurs to better understand the Term Sheets that they receive from Venture Capitalists (VCs). Follow this link to access the Beta Version of that tool, which focuses on important financial elements such as Dividend Terms, Liquidation Preference, Participation Rights, and Convertibility.
For a comprehensive discussion of all relevant deal elements, please refer to our online module "Deal Structuring (Term Sheets)."
