This course focuses on VC and the ‘typical’ venture-backed start-up company based on conventions and practices both in the US and Austria. The course is designed to meet the academic curiosity of ÖCV members by providing key stats and in-classroom discussions and exercises on pros/cons of certain provisions as well as by providing insight into the structure, practices, and operations of venture capitalists.
The course is pragmatic in its orientation. It will cover principal areas relevant to the privately held start-ups:
• Typical investment terms found in the term sheet
• Dynamics of negotiation between entrepreneur and the VC
• Elements of compensation, both cash and equity that are common to VC-backed companies in Tech
• Corporate governance in context of a venture-backed start-up
• Common organizational & legal issues encountered in the formation of a venture-backed start-up
