In early-stage ventures, legal and financial decisions are deeply interconnected, yet founders and investors often navigate them separately and without a complete picture. This masterclass brings together a corporate lawyer and a financial advisor to walk founders through the essential legal and financial building blocks of a start-up's early journey, from choosing the right vehicle and structuring the cap table, to fundraising instruments, employee incentive schemes, and treasury and due diligence readiness. Attendees will leave with a practical one-page toolbox summarising the ten key reflexes every early-stage founder should adopt.
