"Michael has a deep understanding of the business side of technology that many startup founders struggle with. His insights into our business model and VC pitch were both profound and priceless." -- Founder & CEO, Adam Pitchie, trailblaze

Join Michael Kauffman, founder of Big Nimble, at a Founder's Roundtable to discuss participants' current issues, questions and concerns in the following three areas:

Founder's Issues: Who is a founder vs a first employee? How do you allocate ownership between founders? What's the value of that original idea that started it all? What are early ownership and incorporation traps that turn off VC's?

Early IP Issues: Understanding the value of your ideas from the VC perspective and protecting what's worth protecting.

Getting Funded: Get feedback from an investment point of view on your idea -- it's strengths and weaknesses, what's most likely to catch a VC's attention. Great ideas are rare. Great profitable ideas are even rarer. Learn how VC's view you, your ideas and your chances.

Agenda: an hour of taking your questions, proceeded by a 5 minute presentation on each issue at the start of each segment.

About our speaker: Michael has 20 years’ experience as a technology strategist and attorney for Fortune 100 companies, startups, non-profits, and government both in the US and abroad.
