Getting to the term requires overcoming obstacles and challenges. It would help a great deal if you understood the mind of the VC while putting you through their procees to get to the term sheet. Assuming that the VC has interest in your deal, what can you expect?

This event will answer the following questions and more:
- How can you position your company to rise above the crowd? If you have an idea, 10 other companies have the same idea and the VC has probably read all their summaries.
- Once the VC is interested in your deal, what is their due diligence process?
- What and how do they analyze your IP, Market, Team and Business Model? Who do they call?
- What should you avoid saying or doing while the VC is evaluating your company for investment?
- What timeline and activities can you expect from interest to term sheet?
