Most startups are not destined to become billion dollar unicorns. Most, in fact, will fail and most of those that survive will never be more than small businesses. Whether and to what extent a startup will be successful depends on many factors. One set of factors is the foundational pillars on which the company is built, and includes things such as the company’s capital structure, financial controls, human capital, market niche, and marketing functions.
This series explores each of these topics, giving startups and their advisors useful tools and insight into how they can build a foundation for success.
As with every Financial Poise Webinar, each episode is delivered in Plain English understandable to investors, business owners, and executives without much background in these areas, yet is also valuable to attorneys, accountants, and other seasoned professionals. And, as with every Financial Poise Webinar, each episode brings you into engaging, sometimes humorous, conversations designed to entertain as it teaches. Each episode in the series is designed to be viewed independently of the other episodes so that participants will enhance their knowledge of this area whether they attend one,
some, or all episodes.
Episode #4
Congratulations. You are a founder of a company and you have just been given an hour to ask several experts anything you want about the subject. Some questions will certainly focus on IP, since intellectual property is so important to so many businesses. Some questions will touch on outsourcing perhaps
of manufacturing, perhaps of certain other functions. Formation, capital raising, and HR are also fair game. And since the panel includes two attorneys, you can be sure that the conversation will cover both the business and legal aspects of the various topics discussed.
This webinar is delivered in Plain English, understandable to you even if you do not have a background in the subject. It brings you into an engaging, even sometimes humorous, conversation designed to entertain as it teaches. And, it is specifically designed to be viewed as a stand-alone webinar, meaning that you do not have to view the other webinars in the series to get a lot out of it.
