    Really valuable content! I'll be pitching soon so you've definitely landed yourself another future customer.
    I know you guys touched on equity splits in one of your past videos... but, maybe an in-depth video on equity splits amongst founders could be fruitful? And how to determine what's fair in regards to different circumstances? i.e. founders that join the MVP later than others, are part-time, provide less value, etc?

    There's something wrong with your computation at 1:48. $30,000 x 12 x 5 is $1,800,000 only which is 18% of the chunk of the company. And $2,000,000 as you have stated is not 25% but 20% only.

    Your videos are so great! I'm learning so much. I have a clarifying question: for a Convertible note you say the investor gets a discount at 20%. Do you mean it's a discount on share price? If not, a discount on what?

  • @william_8844
    @william_8844 5 лет назад +3

    6:40 I believe its the employees who buy the shares at the strike price and make a profit, and not the company buying. Or I may be learning something new here, more info would be great.
    Great vid thou, keep up the good work.

    Hey! I will like to know how would it work for a Biotech company, as a big part of the first part is R&D, so FFF money might be not enough.
    Thanks
    Great channel by the way

      Frederico, if you're at the R&D stage working on a "hardtech" solution, I recommend becoming a student at a good University and using that to tap into their grants and sponsorships. I used to attend Michigan State University and we have an innovation center. If you're working on cool stuff, they'd basically throw money at you to make it happen, and try to connect you with other early sponsors.
      A second option would be to join a good accelerator, like Techstars or YC. If you're accepted to YC, they invest $150k @ ~7% and plug you into their Network of founders, doers, and investors. I will be applying to YC in a month (or less) for my aerospace technology. Take the time to apply strong, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain!
      I'm curious, at a high level, what are you working on? Good luck buddy.

      @@ozzyfromspace thank you for your answer. I think we are inclined to option 2. It's not in our plans to do a PhD and comeback to Uni. However, we are being supported by two professors at Uni, that are partnering in the development of our technology in their Labs.
      At this moment we are coursing the VentureLab course for Business in Biotech. Which is helping us to organize our plan of action. I will check Techstars and YC. We are located in Switzerland.
      We are working on Biosynthetic molecules.
      Best and thanks for the support

    I do not agreed that is debt and if convert later the founder loses too much. The investor must be there for good and bad time. Not only for good time.

    Hi guys great work, been binge watching your videos. One confusion I had was when we get in an investor, how are they usually paid back ? Is it with shares or do they expect to get shares and the loan money returned to them as well ? This was one part that confused me.
