How do you ensure fairness and objectivity in your investments?

How do you know if you're prepared for due diligence? Depending on the stage of your company, both founders and CFOs can play different roles in the process. One major item that both roles will prepare for is due diligence. Your company’s potential investors will need all types of information to analyze the risks and opportunities associated with your company. VCs may have their own specific requests, but getting your information and documents in order early on can give you a big head start. This information falls within the following buckets: ✅ Actions and minutes ✅ Charter documents and organization ✅ Equity records and holder agreements ✅ Legal and regulatory documents ✅ Intellectual property ✅ Management, employees, and consultants ✅ Debt financing ✅ Other agreements to which the company or any subsidiary is a party ✅ And more... That's a lot to keep track of! During this process, you'll want to make sure you have a secure data room to organize all of your documents to share with investors. The above is one reason we provide an automated data room, so there's no manual lift in organizing – and you’re less likely to miss any documents that can hold up the process. 👉 We've put together this free checklist that you can share with anyone involved in the process that dives deeper into the items above: https://hubs.ly/Q02hFXTq0 #venturecapital #startups #cfo #founder
