Got equity questions for our startup lawyers? Ask them here.
We're less than a week out from Ask a Startup Lawyer: Equity Essentials for Founders on Tuesday, September 29 at 10:00 AM PDT, and we want to make sure your questions get answered live.
Daniel Gawronski and Keith Zittle, both Partners at Michael Best & Friedrich LLP, will spend the first 15 to 20 minutes covering the equity questions they hear most from founders, then open the floor for 30 to 35 minutes of live Q&A.
Drop your questions in the comments below. Some ideas to get you thinking:
How should I think about my vesting schedule and cliffs?
What's the difference between a SAFE and a convertible note, and when does each make sense?
How much equity should I set aside for an option pool before a priced round?
What are the most common equity mistakes you see founders make?
When should I actually bring in a lawyer versus figuring it out myself?
We'll work these into the live conversation, and you'll still be able to ask follow-ups in real time on the call.
Save your spot if you haven't already, and see you there.
