The Emerging Company Series

Part Two: The Perfect Pitch

With Charles E. Torres, Esq.

Partner in the Tech Group at Lowenstein Sandler LLP and Co-Chair of the Lowenstein Sandler Brooklyn Entrepreneurship Center

Wednesday, September 9 @ 3:30 pm

@ The Columbia Startup Lab

The Emerging Company Workshop is a multipart series designed to address the most important considerations for an emerging company. Each segment — Formation and Financing, Protecting Your Company’s Intellectual Property, Employees and Consultants, and the Perfect Pitch – sought to answer entrepreneurs’ most common questions:

When should I incorporate? What type of entity should I form? How much equity should each of the founders get?

What is an 83(b) election? Do I need to file one? What is a 409a valuation? Should I file a trademark or a patent?

Do I need confidentiality and NDAs? How does a Valuation Cap work? What should go into a pitch deck?

The “Perfect Pitch” workshop was the second in the series. We discussed the best ways to pitch your company to potential investors and, in so doing, defined and articulated clearly the business you intend to build!
