Angel Investing Lunch & Learn – Equity and Non Equity Funding
March 1, 2017 11:30 am – 1:30 pm
What's wrong with Convertible Notes and SAFE's?
In this angel investing lunch & learn session sponsored by Fasken Martineau, we will review various equity and non-equity financing options and discuss how these impact angel investing practices, risks and returns.
SAFE’s and convertible notes have become popular choice for entrepreneurs but they are controversial and shunned by some investors. We will present pros and cons from both perspectives. Our moderator and expert panel of investors and entrepreneurs will provide a lively discussion and uncover some scenarios when these instruments are a good choice.
